Closing the Fossil Fuel Export Control Gap

The Case for Mandatory End-Use Certification as a Global Standard

GEEP calls for mandatory end-use certification for all fossil fuel exports as a global legal standard: a requirement that exporters verify and disclose how their product will be used, as a condition of export authorization. The genocide against the Palestinian people is the most documented and catastrophic consequence of this gap. But the gap itself enables militarism and colonial violence across the world. It must be closed universally.

This briefing provides an overview of these gaps through the global trading regime and provides actionable points to advance the implementation of the global standard on the application of mandatory end-use certification in fossil fuel trade.
