Status Europeo AEOF

The (AEO) Authorised Economic Operators - Certificate was recognized after an ad hoc Audit by the Agenzia delle Dogane, the customs authorities in Italy, giving evidence that customs obligations were fulfilled, accounting criteria were met and financial solvency was proved. In addition, Agility demonstrated compliance with appropriate safety and security rules in order to receive “AEO / Security” status. Lechler has been awarded its AEOF Certification with validity starting from 2010/06/22.

The AEOF accreditation offers many advantages to Lechler: simplified customs procedures and security processes, resulting in faster movement and fewer inspections of incoming and outgoing goods. With the new Lechler status, customers will also profit from operational benefits. The EU Certification programme is also addressed to producers, exporters, forwarders, custom brokers and importers, who are involved in the activities ruled by customs obligations and are considered as trustworthy and safe in the purchasing process.

The news has been published on the EU website.
