We have recognition as Tier-2 Authorised Economic Operator (AEO). We have a DTA manufacturing unit. We intend to take Section 65 licence and manufacture in bonded warehouse. Will our benefits as AEO continue if we switch our operations under Manufacture and Other Operations in Warehouse (No.2) Regulations 2019 (MOOWR)?
Operating under Section 65 of Customs Act, 1962 has no effect on AEO status. All benefits available as AEO will continue to be available even after your switching over to manufacturing in bonded warehouse under MOOWR.
