Want to know more about the new EU dual-use OGEL?
Department for International Trade
If the UK leaves the EU without a deal, dual-use items from the UK to the EU will need a licence. An Open General Export Licence (OGEL) has been created for this purpose.
On 1 March, the Export Control Joint Unit (ECJU) will host a webinar to explain the issues around EU General Export Authorisations (EU GEAs) and the new OGEL.
The webinar will:
- raise awareness of the terms of the OGEL
- provide information on the policy landscape of EU-related legislation in a no-deal Brexit
- include a Q&A session directly with policy makers
Please note that places are limited, so early registration is advised.
The webinar will be recorded so that people who miss it will be able to listen in.
