Export Licencing

An export controlled or licensed product is a product controlled by the UK Government. Export licences are needed for importing and exporting of military and paramilitary goods, dual use and technology, works of art, plants, animals, medicines and chemicals.

If your goods fall into these categories you will need to find out how to apply for export or import licences and also find out what compliance responsibilities you have. It is vital that you are aware of these responsibilities, and you know who the relevant UK authorities are.
