A well written set of practical, easy to understand, and easy to access, export compliance policies and procedures is essential to the compliance program of any company trading in controlled goods or technology.
International Trade Advisors can develop an Export Management and Compliance Program (EMCP) that is custom tailored to your business' needs. The EMCP will serve as a working guide as well as a training resource and will be the basis for your company's own periodic internal compliance audits. The EMCP is tailored specifically for your company and aligns corporate, administrative, and operational policies with relevant export regulations.
We can work with your staff to develop an EMCP that at a minimum covers:
- Your company's export compliance policy (ITAR, EAR and Australian law)
- Identifying transactions requiring a U.S or Australian export license
- How to determine if an article is subject to the US EAR or ITAR
- Re-export and re-transfer requirements
- Identifying red flags, screening business partners
- "Deemed export" controls
- How to handle compliance issues including suspected violations
- Recordkeeping requirements including for the ITAR, EAR and Australia
- Where to look for information or assistance
