Export controls

US exporters are expected to understand and comply with explicit export control regulations for both tangible and intangible exports — a daunting task for any company doing business in today's global environment.  Failure to comply with these requirements can result in severe civil and criminal penalites.

Our ECS professionals have experience in applying the requirement of the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and the  Export Administration Regulations (EAR), in addition to deep understanding of sanctions, embargoes, anti-boycott and other international trade regulations.  Our global network provides access to seasoned professionals with the knowledge to apply the ever-expanding regulations of other countries to your business activities.
