The Export Control Organisation (ECO) is part of the Department for Business, Innovation & Skills (BIS) under its International Trade Investment and Development Directorate (ITID).
The aim of the ECO is to 'promote global security through strategic export controls, facilitating responsible exports'.
It is responsible for legislating, assessing and issuing export licences for specific 'controlled' goods. These goods include:
dual-use goods - civilian goods with a potential military use
torture goods
radioactive sources
military items
The ECO also issues trade control licences for the trafficking and brokering of arms and dual use goods.
Whether a licence is required depends on various factors, including the type of items exported and any sanctions in force on the export destination.
