Sanctions and dual-use goods: screen the transaction

The issue
Transactions may require checks on parties, goods, destination and end use. Dual-use items have civilian and military applications; invoice wording alone does not determine the rules.
What to prepare
Before committing, check restrictions, authorisations and possible re-exports. Record checks and investigate warning signs. Intermediaries or contractual clauses do not automatically remove legal obligations and responsibility.
General information, not advice on an individual case. Sources consulted on 22 October 2026: check updates before acting. The overall portal review is ongoing. This note does not certify a complete check of every page.
A compliant product can still lack mandatory information or use the wrong language. Requirements and responsibilities depend on category and destination market.
