7(2): The transfer of goods specified in Part I, Section C, of the Export Contol List (Annex AL) shall
require a licence if the transferor is aware that the final destination of the goods is outside the European
Union. Sentence 1 does not apply if the transfer already requires a licence under Article 21 paragraph 1
sentence 1 of the Regulation (EC) No 1334/2000.

tion is a country of Country List K or a country under embargo as defined by Article 4 paragraph 2 of
