General License

A General License is a regulatory authorization issued by a government agency that allows specific activities to occur without the need for individual permission or license approval. It outlines particular conditions and limitations under which certain actions can be legally conducted, typically to streamline processes or address common, low-risk situations. For example, a General License might permit the temporary import or export of certain goods or technologies, provided specific rules are followed. This helps facilitate legitimate operations while maintaining compliance with relevant laws, reducing administrative burdens for both authorities and those engaged in authorized activities.
