ITAR Compliance Overview

We recognize that compliance isn't a one-time task - it's an ongoing commitment. That's why our ITAR Compliance-as-a-Service is designed to help your organization achieve, manage, and sustain compliance over time.

ITAR Compliance

ITAR / EAR Compliance Services

As part of our International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and Export Administration Regulations (EAR) services, we provide expert guidance on ITAR/EAR requirements and U.S. export control laws, tailored to your current operations and IT/Cybersecurity teams.

All controls, policies, and procedures are reviewed and validated with support from our trusted legal partners to ensure your compliance is both sound and defensible.

  • U.S. Munitions List (USML): If your product appears on the USML, your export activities fall under the jurisdiction of the U.S. State Department.
  • State Department Registration: Organizations with USML-classified items must be registered with the State Department.
  • Export Licensing: We assist with the appropriate licensing process to ensure legal authorization of defense exports.
  • Legal Guidance: We work hand-in-hand with legal counsel to validate documentation, procedures, and export decisions.

We're here to help you navigate this complex regulatory landscape - so you can stay focused on driving your business forward.

Key areas include:

Frequently Asked Questions

ITAR governs the export and import of defense-related articles and services. Any company involved in the design, development, manufacture, or distribution of military technologies or services that fall under the U.S. Munitions List (USML) must comply with ITAR regulations to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive data and technologies.

Non-compliance with ITAR can result in significant consequences, including hefty fines up to $1 million per violation, export restrictions, loss of contracts, and even criminal charges. To protect your business and maintain eligibility for defense contracts, adhering to ITAR regulations is critical.

To maintain ITAR compliance, businesses must implement comprehensive cybersecurity measures, secure access control, employee training programs, and regular audits. Companies must also establish policies for managing technical data and ensure all export activities are approved by the appropriate authorities.

To comply with ITAR, businesses must register with the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) within the U.S. Department of State. This involves submitting an application and paying a registration fee to legally engage in the export or brokering of defense articles and services. Registration must be renewed annually to maintain compliance.

Violations can lead to severe penalties, including fines up to $1 million per violation, imprisonment, or both.

The Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) under the U.S. Department of State oversees ITAR compliance.

ITAR governs manufacturing, export, and transfer of defense-related articles, services, and technical data listed under the USML.

For first-time registrants, the initial registration fee is $2,250, with renewal costs varying based on activity levels.
