What are Export Controls?
Export controls require exporters to be responsible for ensuring that their shipments comply with export legislation. To ensure safety, exporters require solid record-keeping systems and procedures in place, thorough training, and clear lines of responsibility.
Most countries have export controls, and those controls persist regardless of the number of times the information or product changes hands or is amalgamated into other information or products.
The Export Control Act 2002 and the associated order, the Export Control Order 2008, together underpin English export control legislation. They provide a list of controlled (military or dual-use) items that fall within this legislation.
