Introduction

rt

This booklet is prepared for information and guidance to exporters. These lists reflect agreements reached in COCOM ongoods and technologies which should be controlled for strategic reasons. They do not, in this form, have the force of law,nor do they cover all goods which may be subject to export control. Legal prohibition on the export of goods subjectto licensing by the Department of Trade and Industry is enforced under The Export of Goods (Control) Order (1989), whichalso imposes control on the export of other goods. This Order is available from Government Bookshops. Amendments to theOrder (and consequently these lists) may be made from time to time. It should be noted that 'the details of the controls on theexport of goods covered by COCOM Munitions List and Atomic Energy List as given in this booklet may differ from thecontrols as given in the Export of Goods (Control) Order at Groups 1 and 2 respectively of Part 11 of Schedule 1. TheCOCOM Munitions List and Atomic Energy List are reproduced here for information only and not as a guide to the Exportof Goods (Control) Order.

What is COCOM?The Coordinating Committee for Multilateral Export Control. An informal non-treaty organisation of 17 countries operatingaccording to the rule of unanimity. It comprises members of NATO, less Iceland plus japan and Australia.

Which are the proscribed countries?Mghanistan, Albania, Bulgaria, People's Republic of China, Czech and Slovak Republic, Hungary, Mongolia, North Korea,Poland, Romania, the USSR and Vietnam.

Why does the People's Republic of China receive different treatment?COCOM agreed in 1985 to maintain a differential in the application of controls of strategic goods to the People's Republic ofChina, which reflected improved relations with COCOM countries.

Ho"W" can you influence changes to the controls?COCOM reviews the lists on a regular rolling-review basis, covering all items at least once every four years. The Departmentconsults trade associations, other industry groups and individual companies with a known interest in forthcoming review items.If you wish to propose any changes and are not currently consulted on these matters, please write to the Policy Unit (addresson back cover).

Do you need a licence?The inclusion of goods in these lists does not mean necessarily a complete prohibition on their export, even to the proscribedcountries. But it does mean that you require a licence before exporting them to any country. If you are uncertain whetheryou require a licence for your proposed export you should contact the Department's Export Control Organisation, SensitiveTechnologies Unit (STU) (Telephone Inquiries: see back cover). If a technical rating is necessary, you must provide fullsupporting documentation, including a precise description of the goods to be exported~ complete technical specifications and, ifthe goods contain any computer or digital processing element, a completed computer; questionnaire. Technical Officers willthen assess your goods against the Export of Goods (Control) Order and provide a formal statement on their licensing status.

Security export,control March 1991 3

Ifyo.u need a licenceYou should fully complete an 'Application for an export licence - form A' and send, together with full supporting document"to the appropriate address on the back cover. Where the export involves a computer or digital processing element and theexport is to a proscribed country, a completed computer questionnaire and block diagram of the complete computer systetnmust be provided. (This applies to any equipment using microprocessor control. For a comprehensive description of thecontrols on computers and equipment containing them, see IL 1565, taking into account the definitions at the back of th.sbooklet).

Who do you apply to?Where the export is for goods and technologies on the Industrial List to a proscribed country (ie. Afghanistan, Albani;,Bulgaria, People's Republic of China, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Mongolia, North Korea, Poland, Romania, the USSR an iVietnam) applications and inquiries should be addressed to: Cocom Licensing Unit, Room 640 Kingsgate House, 66-7tVictoria Street, London SW1E 6SW (Telephone Inquiries: see back page).

Applications for export licences for goods on the Industrial List to other (non-proscribed) countries and for goods and.technologies on the Munitions and Atomic Energy Lists to any country and related inquiries should be addressed to: ExpoltLicensing Unit, Room 501, Kingsgate House, 66-74 Victoria Street, London SW1E 6SW (Telephone Inquiries: see, backpage).

Exports to the proscribed countriesIt is the general policy of Her Majesty's Government to consult its COCOM partners before deciding whether to issue alicence for the export of controlled goods to a proscribed country. However, for administrative reasons, there are somecontrolled goods where this is not done. This procedure is called 'National Discretion' and goods that are agreed as suitable forsuch treatment are indicated in this booklet by coloured printing on a white background. National Discretion or FavourableConsideration notes which apply only for the People's Republic of China are in black print on a colour-tinted background.

The treatment oftechnologyIn the case of the proscribed countries a licence is necessary for the export of technical data, and any other tangible technologyapplicable to the design, production and use of items as defined in these lists. This applies equally to technology specific to theintegration or use of components in items defined in these lists, even when the components are themselves unembargoed.

The above does not apply to that technology which is the minimum necessary for the installation, operation, maintenance(checking) and repair ofproducts whose export has been authorised.

Export for exhibitions etcProcedures exist for the treatment of applications to export goods temporarily for exhibitions and demonstration purposes,where any export licences issued will be subject to certain conditions. For further information contact either the Expol t

Licensing Unit or Cocom Licensing Unit (See back page) depending on the country concerned. In all cases applications shouldbe submitted on an 'Application for an export licence - form A' and as far in advance of shipment as practicable.

United States re-export controlsExporters should be aware that the United States Authorities claim control over many exports from other countries, includingthe United Kingdom, where the goods are of US origin, include components of US origin, or were produced using US origirtechnology. In such cases, under US export regulations, a US re-export licence is required whether or not a UK export licenceis needed or has been granted.

Although such US regulations are not valid in UK law the US authorities commonly penalise foreign companies which donot comply, by denying them access to US goods or technology in the future. Where a company has a presence in the US,legal action may lead to the imposition of fines and other penalties.

Exporters should note that the US regulations changed in 1988. UK exporters seeking guidance on licensable items 01

restricted countries under US regulations should contact the Commercial Section, US Embassy, 24GrosvenorSquare, LondorW1A lEA (tel 01-499 9000 ext 2433). Copies of the US Export Administration Regulations are available forreference at the Embassy, and a summary of the regulations and licence application forms may be obtained from the Embasslor from the Office ofExport Administration, US Department of Commerce, Washington DC 20230.

Applications for re-export licences may be made direct to the US Department of Commerce; alternatively UK exporters mayprefer to contact their US suppliers who should be able to advise whether a licence is required under US law and, if S(I,

whether or not they can apply for such a licence on behalfof their UK principals.There are additional US licensing requirements for defence equipment of US origin and these are administered by the Offi< e

of Munitions Controls, US Department of State, 22nd and C Streets, NW Washington DC 20521. Inquiries can also be maceat the US Embassy in London.

British companies requiring general advice on US export controls or experiencing difficulties with US regulations should
