question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government how many UK-based freight forwarding companies have Authorised Economic Operator status; and what support HMRC are providing to help such companies secure that status.
tabling member printed	Lord Campbell-Savours
uin	HL3989
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/12/2017 answer text There are currently 623 businesses in the UK who hold a valid Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) authorisation. HMRC does not capture data on the role of the authorisation holder in the supply chain so cannot provide the number of AEO status traders who are freight forwarding companies. The AEO programme is currently only available to businesses involved in the international supply chain; these businesses may also be involved in EU trade. HMRC offers substantial guidance on AEO on the Gov.uk website, additional guidance and learning modules are available on the EU web pages. HMRC also offers a helpdesk via email and telephone. answering member printed Lord Bates question first answered 21/12/2017 13:59:15 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates
