INSTRUCTIONS FOR FILLING UP THIS FORM.
NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAT INVOLVE DELAY.
>
1. Applicants for export licences are requested in their own interests to fill up the form fully anrJ
correctly, and to give as long a notice as possible of their desire to export. In particular, they are advised
not to put in hand the production of goods which will need to be specially manufactured for a particular.^
order unless and until the export licence has been granted. In other oases, however, applications should oo^
be made more than two months before the proposed date of shipment.
2. All the requisite particulars as to the goods to which the application relates should be given on the
form itself except as provided for at 4 (b), and not on a separate sheet or covering letter, and separate
applications should be made for specific licences to export different classes of goods.
3. REFERENCE NUMBERS.—For convenience of reference, applicants are recommended to date
and number their applications on the lines provided on page 1, and to quote this date and number in any
further communication (as well as the Official reference number, if known). Further communications can be
dealt with more expeditiously if they relate^to one application only.
4. RULES TO BE OBSERVED AS REGARDS PARAGRAPH (g) Page 1.—In order to avoid
delay the following rules should be carefully observed :
(a) Not more than one item should appear on each line provided in the table.
(b^ Where the number of items exceeds twelve lines three copies of a schedule giving the requisite
particulars should be furnished instead of including them in the table.
(c) The information required under each heading should be given as accurately as possible.
(d) Quantities and values must be given in British denominations. It is not enough to indicate
quantities by vague terms such as “ cases,” “ barrels,” “ bags,” etc.
6. GOODS IN PROHIBITED LIST. —A list of export prohibited goods is published quarterly in the
Board of Trade Journal.
6. PARCEL POST. —Goods which are to be despatched by parcel post must be posted at the Head or
Branch Post Office nearest to the exporter’s place of business. (Head Offices are printed in the Post Office
Guide in capital letters and Branch Offices are indicated by the letters B.O.). Exporters are warned that
under the Post Office Regulations the export of explosives, including cartridges, by parcel post is
prohibited.
7. RESPONSIBILITY OF EXPORTER. —Attention is called to the fact that where a licence is
granted for the export of prohibited or restricted goods the licence does not relieve the owner of the goods or
the consignor or other person to whom the licence is granted from any responsibility to which he may be
subject for any breach of law or regulations. -. •,
8. SIGNATURE OF FORM.—The declaration on page 1 must be signed by a person
domiciled in the United Kingdom, otherwise the application cannot be accepted. Subject as hereinafter
mentioned, applications will not be considered unless they bear the signature of the applicant, or, in the case of
a firm, the signature of the partner, or, in the case of a company, the signature of a director or the secretary ;
the status of the signatory should be indicated.
In exceptional circumstances applications may be otherwise signed if reasons which are regarded as
adequate are submitted, in writing, to the Imports and Exports Licensing Section, and full responsibility is
accepted for the person whose signature is allowed. In such cases the Imports and Exports Licensing Section
number of the approval must be quoted in the space provided on page 1.
Applications must always be made by the merchant, manufacturer, or other person who is directly
interested as consignor in the export and not by a forwarding agent or other person on behalf of the actual
exporter. For this purpose the consignor is the person or firm who accepts an order from abroad, although he
may not be the actual manufacturer or supplier of the goods.
All applications should be addressed to :—
The Director, Imports and Exports Licensing Section, Board of Trade, Great George Street,
London, S.W.l.
