What does a Specific License allow an applicant to do?

A Specific License is a permission granted by a government authority, usually in the context of economic sanctions or trade restrictions, which allows an applicant to engage in transactions or activities that would otherwise be prohibited under regulations. This license is not blanket coverage but is issued for individual scenarios or transactions, thus requiring the applicant to file an application for those specific transactions on a case-by-case basis.

This means that each Specific License is tailored to the unique circumstances of a transaction, reflecting the government's intent to oversee and control the activities subject to regulations, rather than provide unrestricted approval for all potential transactions. In contrast to other options, a Specific License does not authorize unlimited transactions or automatically extend to future transactions, nor does it serve to prohibit licensing.
