The Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) is a federal voluntary compliance and security program based on World Customs Organization (WCO) SAFE framework.
It identifies traders as trusted and secure, separating their goods flow from the non-AEO traders, and providing them with exclusive benefits to facilitate their imports and exports.
There are 107 member companies in the program in the UAE.
