On September 9th, 2021, the new EU Dual-use Regulation 2021/821 (also known as the EU dual use recast) will enter into force and become directly applicable across all EU Member States and its EU citizens. At the same time, the current EU Dual-use Regulation 428/2009 will cease to apply.

In comparison with the past, the new EU Dual-use Regulation 2021/821 has introduced a number of novelty elements which merit further attention. We have outlined these through a Q&A to help assess whether you need to take further action and ensure you are compliant with ongoing EU export controls in your daily business operations.
