Export controls are complex and high-risk.  In addition to risk of administrative or criminal sanctions, errors lead to shipment delays, financial penalties, reputational damage, and regulatory exposure.

 

This session will provide a clear, practical framework for compliance with EU (and UK) dual use and military controls.   

 

This is a practical structured, experience-based walkthrough of how export controls work in practice from the EU and UK, and what responsible teams need to have in place.

 

What we will cover

  •        Understanding what you are actually exporting
  •        Which export controls apply
  • Classification and dual-use considerations
  • Licensing requirements
  • Working with customs brokers
  • Identifying and managing risk
  • End-use and end-user checks
  • Common operational mistakes
  • First steps to build a basic compliance approach
