Some goods are restricted or prohibited for import and export and it is important that items are checked before they are shipped.

Just because an item is listed as ‘Restricted; this doesn't mean however that it cannot be imported or exported, in certain cases, all that's required to comply with regulations will be an import or export license that allows shipping of the goods in question.
