As part of the Freeport customs model, customs site operators are required to have
Authorised Economic Operator (Safety and Security) (AEO(S)) (a well-recognised international
standard) or equivalent authorisation. Freeport businesses must also be authorised
by HMRC before being permitted to operate and benefit from the customs facilitations.
These authorisations support our robust commitment to the OECD Code of Conduct for
Clean Free Trade Zones and ensure Freeports play their role in combating illicit trade,
attract reputable businesses and protect consumers.
