Do
you know what determines if a license is required for
an export?
A
license from the Department of Commerce or Office of
Foreign Assets Controls may be needed for an export.
Although only a relatively small percentage of total
U.S. exports and reexports require a license, it is
critical that companies understand the regulations to
avoid making illegal exports, which can result in fines,
imprisonment and loss of exporting privileges.
License
requirements dependent upon such things as your item's
technical characteristics, the destination, the end-user,
and the end-use. You need to consider:
- What
are you exporting? (Are your products classified?)
- Where
are you exporting it to? (What are the embargoed countries?
Checking the Country Lists)
- Who
will receive your item? (Are they on any of the Gov’t
denial lists?)
- What
will your item be used for? (Is the end-user involved
in proliferation activities?)
If
it is determined a license may be available, have you
checked if a license exception may be available to you?
