Understand how United States export control rules impact Asian-Pacific and other Non-US businesses
United
States trade control laws and regulations impact companies who use or
re-sell US-origin products, components or technology. The US Government
can impose serious penalties for US and non-US companies who fail to
comply with the extra-territorial US rules (including monetary fines, a
loss of US Government contracts, or a complete ban from receiving any US
items).
US Export Control Reform has changed the rules and increased the risk of serious penalties for non-compliance
Many
items and technologies have shifted from the USML to the CCL with
completely different license requirements and jurisdiction. It is
essential that companies understand the implications of Reform and
update their compliance programs to take advantage of the changes and
avoid costly violations. Both seminars include detailed explanations of
the reform changes and practical advice on how to adapt compliance
practices to take full advantage of the changes while remaining
compliant.
