I run a small tech firm in Jersey and need to ship encryption software overseas. The destination is under sanctions with strict export controls. What steps are required to classify the product and obtain any necessary license?

Dear Sir/Madam,

To export your encryption software from Jersey to a sanctioned country, you must first classify your product under export control regulations based on its technical encryption features. Encryption software is typically controlled as a dual-use item, meaning it has both civilian and military applications. Because of this, strict export controls apply, especially to sanctioned destinations.

You need to check if the country you want to ship to is under export restrictions or sanctions from Jersey's regulatory authorities. If it is, your export may be prohibited or require a specific export license. The licensing process involves submitting technical details of your product to the Finance and Economics Committee or the relevant licensing authority in Jersey, followed by a review to determine if a license can be granted.
