On 8 September 2025, the European Commission adopted a Delegated Regulation updating the EU dual-use export control list under Annex I of Regulation (EU) 2021/821. This update follows decisions made in 2024 by the multilateral export control regimes—the Wassenaar Arrangement, the Missile Technology Control Regime, the Australia Group, and the Nuclear Suppliers Group.
