We are only a small business but 90% of our trade is export and our main market is the USA so we think we should become AEO approved but we are concerned about rumours we have heard about how much it time it has taken some companies to get approval in the pilot scheme and the expense of allocating those resources. We would appreciate your comments on this.

Yes, applying for AEO approval will take time and involve internal resources but Customs will be looking at the size of each business and adjusting the level of work accordingly. If concerned contact the AEO Team at the email address at the start of this article.
