Compendium of AEO Programmes

Thursday, June 23rd, 2011

havenAn update of the Compendium of AEO Programmes is now available. The June 2011 edition of the AEO Compendium updates the data presented in the previous edition (July 2010).
The paper identifies existing AEO programmes and Customs compliance programmes. As of May 2011 the AEO Compendium includes information on 31 different programmes, both AEO and Compliance programmes. While technically not AEOs, Customs compliance programmes can be regarded as an initial step towards the establishment of an AEO programme.

To arrange the data systematically, all programmes are divided into 3 types: operational AEO programmes, AEO programmes to be launched in the near future and Customs compliance programmes.

Besides providing basis information on AEO and Customs compliance programmes, the Compendium also includes a short overview of AEO authorisation procedures and benefits offered by programmes.

The paper was written by Mariya Polner of the WCO’s Research and Strategies Unit in the Office of the Secretary General. Please click here to read the Compendium of Authorised Economic Operator Programmes (2011 edition).
