Echo (Korea)

대한민국은 무기거래조약(ATT) 당사국으로서 「대외무역법」(법률 제16422호, 2019. 4. 30. 일부개정)의 전략물자 수출통제 제도를 통해 조약 의무를 이행합니다. 「대외무역법」 제19조부터 제19조의7까지는 산업통상자원부장관이 관계 행정기관의 장과 협의하여 국제수출통제체제의 원칙에 따라 국제평화·안전유지와 국가안보를 위해 수출허가 등 제한이 필요한 물품(전략물자)을 지정·고시하고(제19조 제1항), 전략물자를 수출하려는 자는 산업통상자원부장관이나 관계 행정기관의 장의 수출허가를 받도록(제19조 제2항) 규정합니다. 국가법령정보센터·찾기쉬운 생활법령정보는 전략물자 지정 근거가 되는 국제수출통제체제로 바세나르체제(WA), 핵공급국그룹(NSG), 미사일기술통제체제(MTCR), 오스트레일리아그룹(AG), 화학무기협약(CWC), 생물무기협약(BWC)과 함께 무기거래조약(ATT)을 명시합니다. 수출허가 없이 전략물자를 수출한 자는 「대외무역법」 제53조에 따라 형사처벌됩니다. 소관 부처는 산업통상자원부(전략물자관리원 운영)입니다.
