Why Check Import & Export Restrictions?
International shipping is governed by complex trade regulations that vary between countries. Items that are perfectly legal in one country may be prohibited, restricted, or require special documentation in another. Checking restrictions before you ship saves time, avoids customs seizures, and prevents costly return shipments.
Our restrictions lookup tool covers over 150 countries and references a database of more than 2 million restriction records. It identifies items that are completely prohibited (cannot be shipped), restricted (may require permits or licenses), or observed (subject to monitoring). Results include the imposing country, restriction type, and a confidence score to help you make informed shipping decisions.
