Notice to exporters 2026/20: updates to the End-User and Stockist Undertaking (EUSU) form and guidance

Published 30 September 2026

Introduction

The Export Control Joint Unit (ECJU) has made further updates to the end-user and stockist undertaking (EUSU) form which must be completed for a standard individual export licence (SIEL), standard individual trade control licence (SITCL) or a licence to provide technical assistance.

The changes have been made following feedback received from exporters. Instead of having to select the relevant sections, all sections must now be completed, an additional section for third parties and intermediate users has been added and more guidance has been included on the form.

We understand that the form is now longer, but it is necessary for us to fully understand the complete export journey of the items to robustly assess each licence application. Providing this information from the start will reduce the likelihood that ECJU needs to request further information, which would delay the export licensing process.

Guidance document

There is a separate guidance document to assist with completing the updated EUSU form.

Previous EUSU template

The updated EUSU form should be used immediately, however there will be no formal expiry of the previous template.
