About
The U.S. Government imposes the most comprehensive and far-reaching technology export restrictions in the world. They control the export and re-export of technology, software, technical assistance and services of U.S. origin and foreign-origin technology or software. These controls affect the release of technical data or software source code to foreign nationals in the U.S. and abroad, electronic transmission of technical data or software, and hand-carried technical data, software, samples, parts, professional equipment and delivery of services.
Enforcement officials are vigorously pursuing technology transfer violations and non-compliance can be more costly than ever before - multi-million dollar criminal and civil penalties, imprisonment and trade embargoes by U.S. authorities. You cannot afford to run afoul of export controls regulations. Your business could be at stake.
