Conflicts Between EU and US Export Rules

Due to the concept of extraterritoriality of US export control laws, European companies need to adhere to both EU and US export regulations. Complying with two sets of sometimes conflicting regulations can present practical and legal challenges. How do you make the choice between compliance with one over the other?  Where do the greater enforcement risks lie?

This webinar is designed for EU companies or governments who deal with US companies or produce their products using US-origin goods or US technology. Companies located in the US may find this webinar to be of interest and helpful in understanding these potential conflicts and how their EU business partners, subsidiaries, parents, or affiliates must balance the conflicting export rules.

This webinar will touch upon existing and potential discrepancies and conflicts between EU and US export control laws. US export controls have an extraterritorial application which often creates major compliance requirements for European companies. There are several instances where US requirements directly conflict with EU requirements. These will be covered in detail.
