30 Jul 2026 Airbus Operations LimitedAirbus Operations pays 6.4 million GBP for export control breaches in technology transfer €7.48m
Over an extended period before November 2022, Airbus Operations Ltd breached the Export Control Order 2008: transfers of controlled technology under three open general export licences (OGEL) were not correctly documented, required registers were missing, and one individual licence was not complied with. The case came to light through voluntary disclosure and was concluded by HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) by way of a compound settlement (date of publication).
Technology transfers by e-mail or data room are also exports – conditions, registers and records of general licences must be put into practice day to day.
