MMH Malta has been awarded the Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) status by the Malta Customs Department.
The AEO was introduced by the World Customs Organisation to enhance international supply chain security and facilitate trade of compliant economic operators.
MMH Malta is now internationally recognised as a Customs secure and safe business partner and is entitled to benefits in customs related procedures as well as obligations and duties towards Customs. The AEO status is continuously monitored to ensure compliance at all times.
MMH Malta Limited chairman Paul Abela said: “The certification reflects MMH’s compliance to the strict Customs criteria, demonstrated by quality, compliance and trustworthiness in the international supply chain.”
Some of the criteria that are critical to this certification include: compliance to Customs legislation and taxation rules, appropriate record-keeping, financial solvency, competence and appropriate security and safety standards.
MMH Malta specialises in services related to marine, oil and gas and is also responsible for the development and operation of the Mediterranean Maritime Hub.
