Hi, in my testing of this, I set my label as below,

Then I created a SPO Team site with this sensitivity label applied to it. I created a word doc and was able to share it to an external Gmail account (completely new test Gmail account).

However, when opening it, I was challenged to send a verification code to the Gmail account.
