Experts In Sanctions & Export Regulations
Get Advice From Professionals
Sanctions and Export controls exist primarily to enable governments to effect their political and security objectives. What this means is that there are a set of rules – some derived through multilateral agreement, some through unilateral actions – which define how individuals, organisations and governments can conduct international trade.
The language of sanctions and export regulations, like any specialist subject, is very particular and this alone can be a reason why you would want to seek guidance from a specialist to give you the confidence that you have interpreted, and are applying, the rules correctly.
Nevertheless, if you are new to trading internationally these rules can be quite daunting.

Governments have legislation that covers all the corresponding regulations in great detail. From the legislation there are working documents that provide businesses with guidelines and reference material from which to work out what is allowed or not allowed in different circumstances.
This includes requirements to obtain export authorisations from Governments in various forms of licence for certain transactions.
When this is new to you the best approach is to engage the service of a subject matter expert to guide you through the relevant rules and regulations so you can be confident you are in compliance with the law of the land.
The Rules Address
- WHO you can do business with
- WHERE you are allowed to trade
- WHAT you are allowed to supply, and
- WHETHER the proposed use of the goods or services may be restricted
