Compliance

Controlled goods,
documented properly.

Prepare the end-use, origin and documentation details that a controlled-goods enquiry may require. The applicable requirements depend on the item and destination.

End-use documentationSanctions screeningExport licensing
01

End-use and end-user control

State the receiving organisation, destination and intended use in your enquiry. Depending on the item, the relevant authorities may require an end-user certificate or end-use undertaking before supply.

02

Sanctions and restricted-party screening

Supply is subject to applicable sanctions and restrictions on the parties, destination and route. The item description and receiving organisation are needed to assess which restrictions apply.

03

Export licensing and origin controls

Licensing depends on the item’s classification, origin and destination. Include known classification and import requirements with the RFQ; availability and lead time may depend on the necessary authorisations.

04

Documentation and traceability

Specify the document set your receiving unit requires: conformity and origin certificates, packing list, invoice and, for applicable aviation items, an airworthiness release. Confirm the agreed set in the written offer.

05

Integrity and anti-bribery

Procurement is subject to applicable anti-bribery law and the buyer’s tender conditions. Provide any declarations, conflict-of-interest requirements or supplier codes that apply to your procurement.

06

Confidentiality and information handling

Agree the handling requirements for your documents with the procurement desk. The enquiry form sends your submitted details and attachments by email; any additional confidentiality arrangements should be agreed before documents are provided.

07

Quality and pre-despatch inspection

State the required condition, inspection criteria and any serial-number, service-life or traceability documentation in the RFQ. These requirements affect sourcing and should form part of the agreed specification.

In practice

  • Identify the receiving organisation
  • State the required documentation
  • Confirm the specification in writing

These are procurement considerations, not an accreditation or a statement of product approval. Applicable laws and the terms agreed for the individual order govern supply.
