Further to the situation in Afghanistan, the Export Control Joint Unit (ECJU) has removed Afghanistan as a permitted destination from 5 open general export licences.
You are no longer able to use these licences to export to Afghanistan. You should apply for standard individual licences (SIELs) instead.
The affected licences are:
- OGEL (export after exhibition: dual-use items)
- OGEL (export for repair/replacement under warranty: dual-use items) from December 2019
- OGEL (export for repair/replacement under warranty: dual-use items)
- OGEL (X) - from December 2019
- OGEL (X)
