The Chief Revenue Officer of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA), Mr Bismarck Kissi explained that the AEO is a GRA-Danida sponsored project which is a \u201csafety framework involving the international movement of goods in whatever function that has been approved by or on behalf of a national Customs administration as complying with equivalent supply chain security standards\u201d.<\/p>\n
He added that Customs\u2019 responsibility for the reform is to enter into partnership with operators to ensure that shippers comply with the standards in the maritime industry.<\/p>\n
Mr. Kissi said the implementation of the AEO will improve the fortune of shippers by eliminating trade obstacles which will in effect improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the supply chain for the benefit of the economy of Ghana.<\/p>\n
