Introduction

Further to notice to exporters 2022/25 the 26 open general licences listed below have been revoked.

These licences were originally created to be used in parallel with licences that had been locked against further registration. These parallel licences maintained the ability to use open licences but with fewer permitted destinations. On 30 September 2022 the original licences were unlocked and made available for registration making the parallel licences below redundant.

A reference table is provided below to help exports identify which alternative licences are available for registration.
