Australian Trusted Trader
Fracht Australia holds Australian Trusted Trader (ATT) status
Fracht Australia was awarded full accreditation status at Australian Trusted Trader (ATT) by the Department of Immigration and Border Protection in December 2017.
Australian Trusted Trader is a voluntary trade facilitation initiative.
It recognises businesses with a secure supply chain and compliant trade practices, rewarding accredited businesses with a range of trade facilitation benefits.
Australian Trusted Trader is an Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) programme. AEOs work to secure the international supply chain, while facilitating the movement of legitimate trade.
Amongst other benefits such as a dedicated account manager, and priority trade services, Trusted Traders have access to differentiated examinations in countries where Australia has signed a Mutual Recognition Arrangement (MRA).
We have established MRAs between the Australian Government and some of our key trading partners including:
- New Zealand Customs Service
- Republic of Korea Customs Service
- Canada Border Services Agency
- Hong Kong Customs and Excise Department
MRAs provide Australian Trusted Trader exporters with faster access to international markets through reciprocal arrangements with our MRA partner countries. Recognition of the ATT logo in these countries builds confidence in Australian businesses and the security of their international supply chain.
MRAs are currently being pursued with a number of other key trading partners including Singapore, Thailand and China.
