All export licences are issued in strict accordance with the Consolidated EU and National Arms Export Licensing Criteria.

The UK publishes on GOV.UK every quarter, information relating to export licences granted, refused and revoked. The information includes a description of the goods, its classification, the end user country and the value as provided by the exporter.
