Information related to sanctions against Russian interests 

Ukraine
As a result of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, sanctions have been imposed on Russian interests. In simple terms, these can be divided into three blocks:

  1. Sanctions on trade in goods and services
  2. Sanctions against individuals and companies
  3. Sanctions on banks and financial services

Sanctions are binding and, as they are extended and updated on an ongoing basis, businesses need to keep up to date on what applies. When it comes to people, you also need to keep track of any intermediaries and who the end user is and whether they are on the lists.

The website of the National Board of Trade provides extensive information about the sanctions and also the opportunity to ask questions:
