New Case Study Insight: Enabling Indonesian 🇮🇩 SMEs/MSMEs to Access AEO Status
SMEs/MSMEs are the backbone of Indonesia’s economy, and Indonesia Customs is taking strategic steps to better integrate them into the Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) programme. A recent DGCE study examines how AEO criteria can be adapted to better suit exporting SMEs/MSMEs.
Key takeaways:
🔹 Most SMEs/MSMEs already meet or partially meet many of the 13 WCO SAFE AEO criteria.
🔹 Major challenges include complex compliance requirements, costly IT systems, security standards, and limited training resources.
🔹 While AEO benefits for exports are currently limited for SMEs/MSMEs, more flexible and proportional criteria could significantly increase participation.
Conclusion: The AEO framework can work for SMEs/MSMEs if applied with flexibility, adjusted sub-criteria, and international standardization on SME/MSME classification. This approach would strengthen trade facilitation, inclusivity, and long-term export growth.
Another great example of a WCO Member’s initiatives to support small businesses and the resilience of global trade!
