AEO Application in Europe
AEO (Authorised Economic Operator) certification is the gold standard for customs compliance in the EU and beyond. It demonstrates reliability, strengthens your supply chain security, and opens the door to simplified customs procedures. Yet the application process can be demanding: from self-assessment questionnaires and policy documentation to on-site audits and ongoing compliance management. Many companies underestimate the time and resources required, which often leads to delays or even rejection.
Gerlach turns this challenge into a structured, achievable process. With decades of experience across Europe and our own AEO-certified operations, we guide you from initial assessment to final approval – ensuring your business gains the competitive edge of AEO status.
