Authorised Economic Operator (AEO-F)

Customs Simplifications

Schenker Limited has been certified as an “Authorised Economic Operator” (AEO – Authorised Economic Operator) of the European Union for “Customs Simplifications / Security and Safety” (AEO-F) since February 2010.

As a result, one of the UK’s leading logistics providers can satisfy all Customs formalities for customers from trade and industry within the EU more efficiently.

By means of this certification, the European Union aims to structure international supply chains more securely. The granting and maintenance of AEO status is attached to comprehensive conditions which require the providers of logistics services to demonstrate their reliability, solvency and compliance with the relevant legal and security provisions.

Schenker Limited has satisfied these demands for many years now and, by holding the AEO-F certificate since February 2011, has formally demonstrated its own quality standards.
