Red flags that signal export control risk
Import and customs obligations with HMRC
How embargoes and sanctions affect trade

Included Modules:

Export Rules and Your Obligations

Explains when goods, software, and technology need an export licence, and how the UK’s Export Control Joint Unit (ECJU) reviews and grants those licences.

Spotting Export Control Warning Signs

Shows the red flags that suggest an export could breach controls, like vague end-users, odd payment terms, or buyers reluctant to share shipping details.

Import Rules and Your Obligations

Covers what you owe when bringing goods into the UK, including correct customs declarations, tariff classification, and duties handled through HMRC.

Embargoes and Sanctions

Explains what embargoes and sanctions are, who imposes them (like the UN and the EU), how the UK’s OFSI enforces them, and why screening trading parties matters.

Why is this training important?

Moving goods across UK borders means getting the details right on customs declarations, duties, licences, and controlled or restricted items. When teams misclassify products, miss a licence, or file paperwork incorrectly, the business can face held shipments, penalties, and breaches of sanctions or export controls that put the whole company at risk. This training helps employees understand their obligations under UK import and export rules so shipments clear smoothly, costs stay predictable, and the organization keeps its trading reputation intact.
