As Banngut or contraband is referred to such goods that the war pinch of law subject, as they are used for warfare or support them.

Banned goods are primarily weapons and armed vehicles as well as their individual parts and ammunition, but other goods intended for warfare are banned goods, such as uniforms, fuel and money. During the First and Second World Wars , the banned goods lists were greatly expanded on both sides, so that the basic materials for the production of chemical warfare agents, machines for the manufacture or repair of vehicles and, to a limited extent, food also fell under banned goods.
