Controlled Commodities

Controlled commodities are specific products or goods that are regulated by governments due to their potential impact on national security, public safety, or international relations. Examples include certain weapons, technology, and materials that could be used for military purposes. The regulations typically require permits for export, import, or distribution to ensure that these items do not fall into the wrong hands. The aim is to prevent misuse and maintain control over sensitive resources, balancing economic interests with safety and security concerns.
