Global Export Licensing Consultants

Blackthorne has an expert dedicated Export Licensing Team that is fully conversant with current encryption levels associated with hardware and software products exported to countries which are subject to licencing rules. Failure to comply with these export licensing rules can lead to severe penalties - in addition to 50+ day delays and often loss of goods. This is our speciality so talk to us first and prevent this happening with your tech shipments!

Most companies are unaware of the vagaries of export licensing and it is all too common that they contravene local custom regulations, often with severe penalties. That’s where we can help.
