What is required under the Defence-related products and Dual-Use Items and Technologies Export Control Act to carry out defence-related products activities.
These requirements are only applicable with regard to the defence-related products, included in the List of Defence-related products (in Bulgarian language). When it is difficult to decide whether or not an item is a defence-related product or a dual-use item, because its basic technical parameters are not enough to make a clear distinction, then what is important is whether such item is especially designed for military use. In case that the manufacturer of the item has given information that it is especially designed for military use, then it may be defined as a defence-related product. |
