Nature of goods
The following checklist outlines the broad
categories of goods which are likely to be controlled:
- most items that have been specially designed or
modified for military use and their components
- dual-use items - those that can be used for civil or
military purposes - which meet certain specified technical
standards and some of their components
- associated technology and software
- goods that might be used for torture
- radioactive sources
Destinations
If exporter items are on the UK Military List or are
more sensitive items on the EU Dual-Use List (i.e. on
Annex IV of the EU Dual-Use Regulation), then he will
need a licence for all destinations - including EU
countries.
End-use/’catch all’
If exporter goods are not listed on the UK Strategic
Export Control Lists, you may still need a licence under
End-Use Controls.
Licensable trade activities
The exporter may also need a licence if he has
arranging or involved in the transfer of goods between two
overseas countries. This is known as ‘trafficking and
brokering’ (trade controls).
