AEO status is a certified standard issued by customs administrators in the EU. 

It certifies that a business has met certain standards in relation to their security, management systems, compliance with customs rules and ongoing solvency. 

Under a World Customs Organisation (WCO) initiative an AEO certification may eventually be recognised worldwide. 

Antaris can help your organisation achieve AEO status by:

• Reviewing/undertaking risk assessments to determine if you are capable of applying for AEO status
• Complete a gap analysis of your systems and processes 
• Help to close any gaps found during the analysis
• Prepare any necessary documentation including checklists, processes, procedures, records, and risk assessments to meet AEO criteria
• Create an internal audit programme to review the processes before inspection
• Assist you in completing the SAQ and application form

For more information on gaining AEO status for your organisation, please get in touch with a member of our team and we’ll be more than happy to help you.
