Regulation – Order Amending the Export Control List

(EICB)

On April 30, 2009, the Government of Canada finalized the regulatory process to amend the Export Control List. This amendment serves to control, clarify controls over and to remove from control specific items and to ensure currency of Canada’s export controls of strategic items pursuant to its multilateral obligations.

A brief overview of the key changes to the items affected by this amendment and an electronic version of A Guide to Canada’s Export Controls – 2007 (142 pages PDF 1.2 MB) are provided on the Export Controls Division website.

A copy of the regulation and the Regulatory Impact Analysis Statement will be published on the Canada Gazette website after May 13, 2009. Please contact the export controls division for more details:
