If document with sensitivity label with user right is sent outside organization

If a document with a sensitivity label with certain control access of a user group (AD group) is sent outside organization as an attachment (different tenant with no guest user profile for the sender):

What kind of behavior the recipient will face if he tries to open the attachment?

    When a document with a sensitivity label is sent outside of the organization, the recipient’s ability to open the attachment will depend on the permissions that have been set for that document. If the document is encrypted and the access is restricted to a specific Active Directory (AD) group within the organization, then typically, a recipient outside of the organization will not be able to open it unless they have been explicitly granted access rights

    The recipient won't be able to open the encrypted document, as they won't be a member of the AD group associated with the label.
