Welcome to the inaugural issue of International Trade Today’s Export Compliance Daily. The International Trade Today editorial staff is pleased to deliver this complimentary launch preview to our community of trade readers for a limited time. This service was developed in response to strong market feedback indicating a dearth of reliable single-source export compliance information.
ITAR Compliance
People and entities exporting items subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) may face penalties, including fines and prison time, for violating license requirements and other rules outlined in the ITAR. The Directorate of Defense Trade Controls is responsible for ensuring compliance with the ITAR and encourages exporters of military goods and technologies to maintain compliance programs.
Search Primer
Term list: Separate terms with spaces, not commas or semicolons.
Multi-word term: Place inside quotes to ensure an exact match (e.g. "foreign direct product rule").
Acronyms: Use all capital letters to ensure the search is not looking for that letter sequence instead. (e.g., BIS).
Required term: If a term must be included in any resulting articles, prefix it with a plus sign (e.g., BIS +Huawei).
Excluded term: If a term should be excluded from any articles being found, prefix it with a minus sign (e.g., China -tariff).
Simplest form: Use the simplest form of a term (e.g. "russian export control" instead of "russian export controls" or "entity list" instead of "entity listing").
