New Commission guidelines for cyber-surveillance exporters were published on 16 October 2024. The new guidelines aim to make EU controls “more effective and consistent across Member States”. The information provided by the Commission is not new but offers a clarification on how controls should be carried out by traders. They assist EU exporters in navigating export controls for cyber-surveillance items by providing a step-by-step approach to transaction screening.
