## The Export of Listed Products

Under the Law of Georgia on International Economic Sanctions, the export of products determined by the control lists is carried out on the basis of an export permit issued in accordance with Georgian legislation. The first legal step of any sanctions compliance policy is therefore precisely the classification of the product within the relevant category and the obtaining of the appropriate permit. An operation carried out without a permit constitutes a violation of the law and entails corresponding liability. Planning an export operation therefore requires a consistent sequence: the product's relation to the control list, the corresponding authorized organ and the type of permit sought, followed by careful documentation of each stage. Correct classification saves time and shields the company from subsequent sanctions, while international partners often demand proof of compliance before contracting.
