Defence, dual-use controls and authorisations in Cheb

Product classification and activities determine the approvals needed for a defence project. Assess premises, foreign trade and special goods separately and coordinate the results.

Classify products and activities

Distinguish ordinary industrial components, controlled dual-use items and military material. Software and technology can also be controlled. Document classification; an industry label is not a product classification.

EU and Czech frameworks

Regulation (EU) 2021/821 provides the EU dual-use control framework. The Czech MPO Licensing Administration provides guidance on military-material foreign trade permits and licences. Procedures depend on goods, activities, destinations and end use.

Site approval is separate

An export licence does not demonstrate warehouse suitability. Assess permitted building use, fire protection, occupational safety and any requirements for special goods. Lease terms and insurance must match the planned operation.

Manage approvals throughout the project

Use an approval matrix for Cheb: product, activity, authority, required evidence and accountable person. Keep status and restrictions current. Move goods and begin operations only when the relevant approvals are available.

Prepare for site planning

The planning lists below are practical recommendations for your site project; they do not replace project-specific qualification or a regulatory decision.

  • Classify goods and activities
  • Identify destinations and end use
  • Check current control lists and procedures
  • Record site and trade approvals separately
  • Maintain an approval matrix and responsibilities
