When you participate in exhibitions of military equipment, to avoid any delay relating to processing of documents at regular meetings of the Interministerial Commission for Export Control and Non-Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction, you may use a License for Participation in Defense Exhibitions. The License is issued by the Interministerial Commission once for the calendar year and encompasses the number of participation of the applicant during that year. Each particular participation in exhibitions of the annexes to the license is certified by the Secretary of the Interministerial Commission against presentation of a document, verifying the applicant’s participation in the respective exhibition, but not later than 10 workdays prior to its conduct.
Each participation in an exhibition outside these included in the license for the calendar year shall take place subject to the general provisions for export, import, transfer.
In both cases you are required to hold also an authorization for export and import of defence-related products, issued by the Interdepartmental Council.
