What the service entails
Your cargo, cleared without delay
AEO certification scores your supply-chain security — premises, people, IT systems, cargo handling — and repays compliance with India's fastest customs treatment on offer: minimal examination, Direct Port Delivery, deferred duty payment, and mutual-recognition advantages in partner countries.
Applications most often fail on documentation rather than security: absent SOPs, patchy access logs, business partners never mapped. We run a pre-audit against the precise AEO questionnaire, draft the security plan and SOPs alongside your team, and stand with you through physical verification until certification — covering T2 and T3 upgrades.
