Across borders

Complications to check

Issues to assess when more than one country is involved. They are prompts, not conclusions about any country's law.

  • Customs origin and valuationA shipment is assessed differently by export and import authorities
  • Controlled technology exportsSoftware, electronics or know-how may require local export controls assessment
  • Dual-use / security tradeTechnical products may serve civilian uses but face licensing or sanctions restrictions
  • Different laws of contractParties sign one commercial agreement but disagree which law governs duties, damages and remedies
  • Foreign ownership of landAn asset buyer needs to verify permitted ownership interests and registrations
