Sales of BEIPSSC products are subject to U.S. Export Control Laws, where applicable. Selected BEIPSSC products are NOT subject to ITAR or EAR regulations. These products still require an original end-user statement (on company letterhead) for all export sales.

Several BEIPSSC products are subject to ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations, 22 CFR Chapter 1, Subchapter M, Parts 120-130, or EAR (Export Administration Regulations). Some products may also be classified as SME (Significant Military Equipment) under ITAR.

An EXPORT LICENSE must be obtained from the U.S. Department of State or the U.S. Department of Commerce, before these products can be exported. For any BEIPSSC product subject to ITAR or EAR regulations to be exported, either as unmodified stand-alone units, or as a component in a higher level assembly, up to and including aircraft, spacecraft, ground vehicles, and ships or other ocean vessels, irrespective of their intended use, the buyer is required to provide notification to the end-user of their responsibilities as directed by ITAR or EAR.

One of the following Destination Control Statements will be included in any resulting Sales Order Acknowledgements, Shipper’s Export Declaration, and all invoices:

EAR: “These commodities, technology or software were exported from the United States in accordance with the Export Administration Regulations. Diversion contrary to U.S. law is prohibited.”

ITAR: “These commodities are authorized by the U.S. Government for export only to [country of ultimate destination] for use by [end-user]. They may not be transferred, transshipped on a non-continuous voyage, or otherwise be disposed of in any other country, either in their original form or after being incorporated into other end-items, without the prior written approval of the U.S. Department of State.”
