Global Affairs Canada states in Notice to Importers and Exporters Serial No. 1033 that, effective immediately, Canada temporarily suspends the issuance of all new permits for the export and brokering of controlled goods and technology to Belarus. Permits issued before November 9, 2020 remain valid, and exporters may continue to export against those permits during their period of validity. Global Affairs Canada says it will continue to monitor the situation and may reassess the decision.
