NAFL REVIEW Events Dubai Customs shares AEO implementation experience at global conference Ahmed Mahboob Musabih taking part at one of the conference's leading panel sessions A high profile delegation from Dubai Customs took part in the WCO 3rd Global AEO Conference, held in Cancun, Mexico. Dubai Customs Director, Ahmed Mahboob Musabih, was a panellist on the first day plenary session of the conference presenting the UAE's state-of-the-art Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) program of which Dubai is the pilot. The Executive Director of Clients Management Division, Abdullah Al Khaja and Director of Customs Declaration Management, Eman Bader Al Suwaidi were also present among Dubai Customs' delegates. Dubai Customs has concluded the design of the first pilot launch phase for the AEO Program in a bid to achieve the fully operational state by mid-2016 in accordance with the SAFE Framework of Standards to Secure and Facilitate Global Trade, which is globally recognized as the (SAFE Framework). Dubai Customs AEO Program team have already handpicked a group of companies to be the cornerstone in gauging the program's readiness and to ensure compatibility and full compliance with the WCO's AEO enrolment criteria prior to its fully operational launch nationwide in the nearby future. “It is of our core management values to adopt, integrate and implement the world's first class best practices for the best interest of Customs work and trade facilitation. Dubai Customs has opted for walking the extra mile in implementing the AEO Program for the sake of forging and cultivating on broader strategic partnerships that would help boost and smoothen the flow of global legitimate trade. Such partnerships will be realized through Mutual Recognition Agreements (MRAs) among AEO Program adopting countries and partners of the global supply chain,” said Ahmed Mahboob Musabih, while speaking at the panel. “The AEO program functionally enhances our ability to predict and envision the global trade supply chain for many years to come, thus empowering us with a greater proactiveness in managing and planning logistics. The program also helps in reducing document and shipments controls, which significantly adds up to our capacity to handling the colossal and diversified amounts of goods and c o m m e r c i a l transactions coming in to Dubai via air, land and sea ports.” Dubai Customs Director also highlighted that upon the full implementation o f t h e A E O P r o g r a m , q u a l i fi e d companies will be entitled to a wide array of b e n e fi t s , especially in t h e e a s e o f accessibility to global markets at large and to countries that have entered in MRAs with the UAE. Under the theme “The Evolution of Security in Global Trade: Great partners, Innovative technology and Smart practices ”, the event brought together a congregation of 1,100 participants form 75 countries and international entities representing Customs administrations and authorities, business leaders and academics.
