Security measures for known consignor certification

PCS offers the development of an access control concept specifically for a secured air cargo area, enabling you to apply for official approval as a known consignor or certification as an Authorised Economic Operator (AEO).

Your security concept for certification as a known consignor or Authorised Economic Operator (AEO)

Secure supply chains are a key requirement for companies involved in export business. Companies that become certified as a known consignor or Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) benefit from simplified procedures in air cargo transport and customs clearance.

To be approved as a known consignor, companies must independently ensure that air cargo is protected against unauthorized access and tampering at their business premises or operational site. If security measures are in place and properly documented—such as a comprehensive access control system—known consignors are exempt from cargo screening procedures. This allows the cargo to be passed on to other companies, which must also hold secure status.

However, the path to approval and certification imposes strict requirements on operational security and organizational processes.

Certification requires comprehensive air cargo security measures: strict access controls, monitored security zones, regular training by certified instructors, documented tamper protection, and an approved security concept.

For AEO certification or approval as a known consignor, a secured cargo packaging area is essential. This "secured area" must be structurally and organizationally separated from other zones. Only authorized, trained employees are granted access.

White paper "Authorised Economic Operator (AEO)" – only available in German

Certification-relevant security measures for the air cargo industry

Companies aiming to obtain the status of a known consignor or Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) in order to expedite their air cargo processes are subject to special scrutiny regarding their security standards. The requirements for protecting buildings, access points, and sensitive areas are high and essential for successful certification.

This white paper presents typical measures for physical security in cargo packaging areas and provides guidance on implementing an effective security concept—as a basis for customs approval and as a contribution to a secure supply chain in international trade.
