Strict pre-requisites of IATA mean that only accredited agents can issue airline paperwork direct in the form of Master Airway Bills. This allows ASP Global the opportunity of immediate acceptance of cargo phone bookings during peak periods and gain preferential rate structures which we can pass on to our clients.
IATA accreditation also provides freight agents with industry recognition of their financial and professional competence and airlines with a worldwide distribution network of approved agents who operate under government approved rules and regulations. These government approved rules establish the rights and obligations of the parties, as well as the procedures and requirements for agents who wish to obtain and to maintain industry accreditation, thus becoming part of the airline’s global cargo distribution network.
In practical terms being an IATA accredited freight forwarder means that ASP Global interacts directly with all international airlines when shipping air freight and does not need to go through a third party agent which saves our clients time and expense. In addition, we have credit accounts with all airlines to expedite operations and administration.
The Export Council of Australia (ECA) is the peak Industry body for the Australian export community. The ECA is the next exciting step in the evolution of the Australian Institute of Export (AIEx) which, for over 50 years, has had the interests of Australian exporters at heart.

The ECA represents all exporters: large, medium and small.
