The free-of-charge services of the Due Diligence Helpdesk on EU Sanctions include:
Helpdesk Enquiry Service – Confidential Consultation
Individual EU SMEs can submit enquiries via the Sanctions DD Analysis tool, accessing a panel of experts to receive confidential first-line information on their specific business case. The Helpdesk will perform due diligence verifications and inform EU SMEs about whether their planned business activities will contravene EU Sanctions.
Important Notice: Due Diligence request deadline
Due to the upcoming conclusion of the project at the end of August, we would like to inform all users that from July 25th the Helpdesk reserves the right not to process Due Diligence requests requiring in-depth investigations. To ensure timely and efficient service, Due Diligence requests should be submitted before the specified deadline.
