Help with this section
Open a question for help. The numbers match the printed questions and agreement clauses.
6.1Known export or access restrictions
What to enter
Select None identified, Yes or Not yet assessed. If Yes, provide brief details in 11.1. Consider UK, US and other applicable controls on goods, software, technology, support and access. There is no general ITAR-certified status.
Where to find it / what to do next
- Ask whoever owns your product or service compliance whether the proposed supply has known export or access restrictions.
- Consider technical information and remote access as well as physical shipments. Use the official starting guide to find the relevant control-list and licensing guidance.

- Check the export-control starting guidance (opens in a new tab)Export Control Joint Unit
Explains controls on military goods, software and technology, with routes to the control lists, licensing guidance and specialist help.
If the assessment has not been done, use Not yet assessed and record the follow-up in 11.1. Do not label an uncertain supply unrestricted or start the affected activity before required checks are resolved.
6.2Sanctions and restrictions
What to enter
Check whether the supplier or owners/controllers are subject to relevant restrictions. Select No after checks, Yes or Checks pending; disclose relevant details in 11.1. RCDEN carries out its own proportionate checks.
Use the current UK Sanctions List and consider ownership/control. The former OFSI Consolidated List closed on 28 January 2026. Reusable registration does not freeze checks at the original date.
Where to find it / what to do next
- Search the current UK Sanctions List for the supplier and relevant owners or controllers. Check alternative names where relevant.
- Compare identifying details rather than assuming a similar name is a match. Consider ownership and control as well as direct listings, and retain the date and basis of your check.

- Search the current UK Sanctions List (opens in a new tab)FCDO
Search the supplier and relevant owners or controllers. Compare identifying details before treating a similar name as a match.
- UK Sanctions List and search guidance (opens in a new tab)FCDO
The official list, downloads and guidance. Use this starting page if you need another way to access the list.
- Check sanctions ownership and control rules (opens in a new tab)OFSI
Explains why checking the company name alone may not be enough and how ownership or control can affect restrictions.
If a possible match or ownership question is unresolved, use Checks pending and explain it in 11.1. A name search alone is not proof that every restriction has been ruled out.
If more detail is needed
For the relevant work only. These are not extra questions in the initial registration.
What a work-specific export schedule contains
Where relevant, identify the items and technology, control-list classification and origin, destination, end user/use, remote access, parties and licence or other authorisation. For US restrictions, record ITAR/EAR jurisdiction and relevant USML/ECCN or EAR99 basis. DDTC registration is not export authority; EAR99 is not unrestricted in all circumstances.
Obtain the relevant permissions before a controlled transfer, access or transaction. Form 1686 or F680 security permission does not replace an export licence.
