Authorised Economic Operator (AEO)
Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) is a professional service that assists companies engaged in international trade to obtain and maintain a preferred trader status with customs and other regulatory agencies. A preferred trader is a company that has demonstrated a high level of compliance with customs and trade regulations and is therefore eligible for certain benefits and streamlined procedures in their trade activities.
The role of D. Liebenberg Consulting is to help companies understand the requirements and benefits of preferred trader programs and to assist them in developing and implementing the necessary policies and procedures to meet the program’s standards. This may involve conducting an initial assessment of a company’s trade operations to identify areas of improvement, providing training and guidance to staff members on compliance and risk management, and developing a compliance framework tailored to the company’s specific needs.
Some benefits of preferred trader status may include faster clearance times for goods at the border, reduced inspection and audit rates, and access to streamlined procedures for filing declarations and other documentation. By working with D. Liebenberg Consulting, companies can enhance their trade compliance and efficiency, and reduce the risk of costly penalties and other legal consequences associated with non-compliance.
