About AEO-S
Customs safety & security focuses on physical security measures, from site security to control of supply chain suppliers, physical checks undertaken on incoming or outgoing goods, security training & HR checks.
Benefits
Holding AEO-S reduces your risk score with HMRC, resulting in less consignments selected for x-ray examinations. It also provides access to Mutual Recognition Agreements (MRAs) with partner countries such as the US and China, so export cargo can move more smoothly on arrival at destination ports and airports.
