It however requires continued support in capacity building of its staff and the private sector for developing a robust system of AEO regime.The WB under the Lao PDR's Competitiveness & Trade Project (LCTP) has provided following support: 1. Legal & procedural changes in customs for an effective AEO scheme. 2. Development of detailed guidelines for processing of applications and validation of AEOs.
