Dual-use products are goods, software, and technologies that can be used for both civilian and military purposes. Due to their advanced technical properties, they may pose a threat to national security. The trade of dual-use products requires special attention. In Poland, this process is closely monitored and controlled by the appropriate state authorities to ensure national security and compliance with international regulations.

Key Requirements and Principles Established by the Act

The Act on the Record of Trade in Strategically Significant Goods aims to protect state interests and national security. In Poland, such regulations are governed by the Act of July 24, 2015, on the control of certain investments. The main requirements and principles outlined by this law include:

Scope of Application

The Act applies to entities and transactions involving:

  • Key sectors such as energy, critical infrastructure, telecommunications, financial systems, healthcare, and defense manufacturing.
  • Enterprises deemed essential for public order or national security.

Mandatory Transaction Notification

Transactions that may lead to control over a strategically significant enterprise must be reported to the relevant state authorities. In Poland, this authority is the Minister of State Assets.

Types of Transactions Subject to Notification

Transactions requiring notification include:

  • Acquisitions (e.g., purchase of shares, stakes, or enterprises).
  • Investments that result in significant influence over the management or operations of an enterprise.
  • Purchases of assets critical to state functions.

Transaction Assessment Criteria

State authorities assess whether a transaction poses a threat to public order or national security. This evaluation considers:

  • The potential impact on continuity of supply in strategic sectors.
  • Risks of transferring critical technologies.
  • The possibility of losing control over critical infrastructure.

Transaction Approval Procedure

After notification, the Minister of State Assets may:

  • Approve the transaction.
  • Issue a prohibition if the transaction is deemed a threat to national interests.
  • Specify conditions under which the transaction may proceed.

Penalties for Non-Compliance

Failure to comply with the obligations under the Act may result in:

  • Transaction invalidation.
  • Financial penalties imposed on entities involved in the transaction.
  • Other legal consequences to safeguard state interests.

International Cooperation

The Act also provides mechanisms for international cooperation on investment control, aligning with European Union regulations and other international agreements.

Our system ensures that all processes align with national regulations governing the trade of strategically significant goods. It minimizes the risk of unauthorized access to strategic technologies and materials. With advanced access control and monitoring mechanisms, companies can effectively safeguard their resources from unauthorized use.
