Hainan company completes first simplified review of AEO certification
Hainan Fanyu Shipping Agency completed the province’s first simplified review of advanced Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) certification.
Haikou Customs said the shipping agency qualified to use the process under a policy for companies with strong credit ratings.
Companies rated excellent can pass review without an on-site inspection, while companies rated excellent or good may use simplified reviews.
AEO status is described as a fast track for businesses in international trade.
The change saved the company inspection preparation time and internal resources, and it said it would continue to follow customs requirements.
Haikou Customs plans to keep helping businesses seek AEO status as part of efforts to support trade in the Hainan Free Trade Port.
Hainan Fanyu Shipping Agency Co. has become the first company in Hainan to complete a review of its AEO advanced certification through a simplified procedure.
The company was exempted from an on-site review under the policy.
The procedure shortened preparation time and reduced the company’s internal workload, Haikou Customs said.
Haikou Customs said it would continue helping companies develop AEO certification and explaining related policies.
