  2. Requirements • EUC required prior to approval of export licence: • Exporting state to provide guidance • States to minimise number of officials authorised to sign/stamp EUCs • Importing State to ensure EUC contains minimum information requirement as per IATG 03:40 • An EUC shall not be used for more than one transaction • Requires rigorous and thorough end user verification

  3. Types • Typically, EUCs are of 2 types: • EUCs for transfer to states entities • EUCs for transfer to private entities

  4. Contents of a Typical EUC (a) • Slide (A): • Date of issue and detailed description of ammunition • Country of final destination of goods • Description of the end-use • Assurances that ammunition will only be used by the end-user • Assurances the ammunition will be used only for the stated end-use • Assurances that re-export of imported ammunition can only take place after written authorization

  5. Contents of a Typical EUC (b) • Slide (B): • The details of the exporter • Information about the end-user • The original signature of the end-user • Certification by the relevant governmental authorities as to the authenticity of the end-user • A unique register number and the duration Information on transit points (if any). • A clause allowing exporting State to conduct on-site inspections of the transferred ammunition

  6. Forgeries and Fakes No ministerial or government logo No address for correspondence, no fax/phone number A blank space instead of fixed individual certification number No specific broker or agent named as facilitating the transfer The document is signed by the highest-ranking official within the MOD, making it more politically sensitive Home-made EUC to cover 2,200,000 rounds of 5.56mm ammunition
