Defense technology companies in Germany operate in a highly regulated environment that requires careful navigation of various legal requirements. Key regulations include national or EU legislation on handling of defense-related goods and international treaties. The legal landscape is complex: Beyond defense-specific laws, start-ups must also comply with general public law requirements, including building permits and emission protection permits.

Besides regulatory requirements that need to be assessed on a case-by-case basis, defense start-ups should even at an early stage consider three areas: (i) foreign investment controls when it comes to investments by foreign investors; (ii) export control; and (iii) sanctions related questions.

  • Part III: Sanctions Compliance: A Guide for Defense Start-ups in Germany
