Export Control Requirements for All Manufactures of Products Sold to the
Department of Defense
• International Traffic in Arms Regulations ( ITAR) is a set of United States government regulations that control the export and import of defense-related articles and services. ITAR 122.1 requires registration.
• Purpose. Registration is primarily a means to provide the U.S. Government with necessary information on who is involved in certain manufacturing and exporting activities. Registration does not confer any export rights or privileges. It is generally a precondition to the issuance of any license or other approval under this subchapter.
