Benefits of becoming an AACA

What's in it for you?

There are many benefits to you and your business:

1. Do more business with RACAs

   As a regulated business you can handle air cargo for RACAs securely, which could provide you with new business opportunities compared to unregulated operators. AACA is simpler.

2. AACA is simpler

   As an AACA you will only have security obligations that are relevant to your operations, without the complexity of becoming a RACA.

3. Avoid air cargo delays and costs

   Cargo from businesses that are not AACAs or RACAs will have much stricter security measures applied. By being an AACA you will prevent delays in air cargo delivery and save on air cargo examination costs.

4. Gain valuable training

   When you complete the AACA training you will have a recognisable, portable qualification at no charge.

5. Improve the security of your cargo

   You will reduce the risk of unauthorised items, especially explosives, being inserted into air cargo and minimise the risk of theft.

6. Help strengthen aviation security

   A major aviation security incident in Australia would damage the transport industry and individual participants. You can help prevent this from occurring by becoming an AACA.

Once you become an AACA, you will be required to comply with the AACA Security Program. You will also be subject to regular compliance and audit checks by the Office of Transport Security.
