An annual quantity of approximately 1,000,000 tons of all types of paper and pulp, shipped from Scandinavian, European, South American, U.S. and Canadian ports, are handled, stored and forwarded to the European hinterland.

AEO Certification

As of June 2nd 2010 Interforest Terminal Rotterdam has obtained the AEO certificate for both Custom Simplifications as well as Security and Safety.

This certificate is issued to any economic operator established in the European Community who fulfils criteria related to customs compliance, appropriate record-keeping standards, financial solvency, and maintains appropriate security and safety standards.

By means of the certification Interforest terminal Rotterdam can officially call itself an EU Authorised Economic Operator and therefore meets the requirements as laid out by the EU in the Community Customs Code as amended by EC Regulations 648/2005 and 1875/2006.

As a result of this Interforest terminal Rotterdam is able to further strengthen its role as valued supply chain partner towards its customers as the goods flow handled by Interforest terminal Rotterdam will be subject to less controls and priority treatment as well as will give easier admittance to customs simplifications, the possibility to request a specific place for controls and allows for prior notification in case of shipments under customs regime.
