Definition

Import, export, transit or intra-Community transfer authorizations are legal documents delivered under certain conditions by the Control office for exports, imports and transit of the Ministry of the Economy, authorizing the trade of certain goods that depart from the principle of free exchange within the European Union or abroad.

These authorizations may be applied for in advance of any movement of goods whose trade is quantitatively restricted or on account of the sensitivity or the dangerousness of the goods.
