Open connected tool →Sanctions, controls and restrictions
Sanctions are jurisdiction-specific legal measures against designated parties, activities or sectors.
Export controls govern strategic, military, dual-use, end-use and end-user movements and may require licences.
Import restrictions include prohibitions, licensing, quotas and product or country controls at destination.
General trade measures may apply without being sanctions. Never describe a country as simply “sanctioned” when measures are narrower.
Terminology & guidance
Use the knowledge centres for jurisdiction-aware explanations, then return to official legislation for the current legal position.
