Exports: Sanctions
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, whether her Department has (a) taken steps to help support exporters to comply and (b) issued guidance to exporters on compliance with international sanctions.
- Answer
-
Non-compliance with sanctions is a serious offence. We expect and support UK businesses to take steps to reduce their risk and comply with sanctions.
We regularly engage with exporters, have published statutory and non-statutory guidance, and issued notices to exporters on due diligence and circumvention risk.
We recently announced that we are creating the Office of Trade Sanctions Implementation, which will strengthen the implementation and enforcement of our trade sanctions once operational, including through additional business outreach and guidance.
