1) Restrictions on exports by the Australian Government:
Some Defence related items are subject to export restrictions by the Australian government however very few of our products come under this category so the majority do not require an Australian Government export licence.
For the full list of restricted items please see the Australian Government's Defence Export Control Office (DECO) website.
Also the Australian Government lists a small number of embargoed countries on the Australian Customs website.
If you are considering purchasing an Australian Government export controlled item you need to research the Australian Government restrictions on these items and become aware of the significant penalties for infringement of these regulations.
