Are there any restrictions on the import and export of controlled chemicals classified under the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC)?
All imports and exports of Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) scheduled chemicals that are above the relevant concentration limits will require a CWC licence before the application of a permit to import and export.
The export and transhipment of scheduled chemicals may also be additionally controlled under the Strategic Goods (Control) Act (SGCA).
