The first month of 2024 started with the publication of several European documents at common European and regional level (Baltic Republics), which present interesting facts and analyses on the export and transit of prohibited, restricted or dual-use goods. These are: white paper on Export Control; Commission Recommendation (EU) 2024/214 of 10 January 2024 on guidelines setting out the methodology for data gathering and processing for the preparation of the annual report on the control of exports, brokering, technical assistance, transit and transfer of dual-use items pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2021/821 of the European Parliament and of the Council; and 'Regional Approach to Ensure Uniform Customs Controls and Information Exchange for Implementation of the EU Restrictive Measures', adopted by the Baltic Republics of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia.

National sanctions against Russia and Belarus: Lithuania tightens controls
25-06-2023

The enforcement of international sanctions in Lithuania continues to tighten. The new strengthened national regime entered into force on 5 June 2023. In July 2023, an additional requirement will come into force: manufacturer's declarations will be required for the transit by road through Russia or Belarus of non-dual-use goods with commodity codes corresponding to those included in the newly created national dual-use goods list. The new requirement will apply to all goods crossing Lithuanian borders, including those exported or re-exported from other EU countries.

Certain critical export-controlled product groups to be aware of
01-06-2023

The main purpose of the article is to raise awareness of certain product groups that are subject to export control. This concerns in particular drive and automation products as well as emerging technologies in the high-tech industry. For example, inverters can have a special software extension for output frequencies above 600 Hz, which is critical because this type of product can be used in chemical centrifuges and nuclear power plants in sanctioned countries.

Export control: the need for an internal compliance programme
14-05-2023

What is an Internal Compliance Programme (ICP) and what are its core elements? What if the ICP is not required by law, should companies still use it? The answer is definitely yes. Even if your company does not fall under the criteria for a mandatory ICP, it is important to have one in place if you deal with export-controlled items.
