Frequently asked questions

Which goods are under EU sanctions toward North Korea?

Goods covered by Council Regulation (EU) No 2017/1509 are listed in its annexes by CN code. They include both export bans to North Korea and import bans from North Korea. To determine the status of a specific product, identify its CN code and check it in the search tool.

What is Regulation 2017/1509?

It is an EU legal act establishing restrictive measures toward North Korea. The binding source is its current consolidated version published on EUR-Lex. The database is continuously monitored and updated.

Can the same product have a different status toward Russia?

Yes. The regimes are separate. The same CN code may be banned under one regime and not the other, because Regulations 833/2014 and 765/2006 have their own annexes. Check both regimes separately.

Does every item have an annex and article?

Yes. Every 765/2006 item carries its annex, article, direction and restriction type, taken from the consolidated text of the regulation. Some annexes are not a trade ban but a due diligence duty under Arts 8g and 8ga, and they are labelled as such. Always confirm details in the act text on EUR-Lex.
