The Community regime for the control of exports of dual use goods has been established by EU Regulation 1334/2000, which was replaced by EU Regulation 428/2009.

For the implementation of Regulation 428/2009 Ministerial Order 312/2009 was published in the Official Gazette no. 4381 of 27.8.2009.

Dual use goods are the goods, including the software and technology, which may be used for civil as well as for military applications. This definition includes all goods which can be used for assisting in any way in the manufacture of weapons of mass destruction.

For the export and re-export of dual use goods an export licence, issued by the Licensing Section is needed, while the transit of non community goods may be prohibited in case there is information that the goods are or may be destined for uses related to weapons of mass destruction or for military end uses in an embargoed country.

The updated list of the controlled dual use items is Annex I of EU Regulation 2020/1749.
