Standard Individual Export License (SIEL)

A Standard Individual Export License (SIEL) is issued by the Export Control Joint Unit (ECJU), which allows the exportation of specific controlled goods to a designated location.

SIELs are tailored to specific goods, exporters, destinations, and customers. Also, they cover multiple shipments over a predetermined period of time (usually two years).

Applying for SIEL:

  • Information required: Exporters must provide information about goods quantities, values, and destinations.

  • Consignee and end-user: The application must specify the first recipient (consignee) and final user (end-user).

  • Supporting documents: Additional documents may also be needed, such as end-user undertakings.
