EXPERTISE

FD Associates offers a full range of licensing services, including assistance with commodity jurisdiction requests and product classifications; registration with the U.S. Department of State; preparation of license and agreement applications in compliance with the ITAR or the EAR; and tracking and management of the license review through the State and Commerce Departments and the Department of Defense (DOD).

We can assist you in devising strategies to achieve export license approval, thereby helping avoid costly “RWA’s” (return without actions) by the government reviewers.

We are well established with the Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC), the Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) and the Department of Defense, Defense Technology Security Administration (DTSA), and other agencies involved in the review of licenses or agreements, and can be effective advocates for our clients in achieving license approval for even the most complex license transaction.

FD Associates performs audits of company's export practices and procedures to determine compliance with the ITAR or the EAR. We also assist companies in establishing procedures for licensing and exporting their commodities in compliance with the ITAR or the EAR regulations.

In addition to our regular program export licensing and compliance seminars held in McLean VA, we offer company specific training seminars in the requirements of the ITAR or the EAR.

WHEN IT COMES TO EXPORT LICENSING AND SHIPPING IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ITAR OR THE EAR, WHY TAKE CHANCES? NO MATTER HOW BIG OR SMALL YOUR REQUIREMENT, FD ASSOCIATES CAN PROVIDE EXPERT ASSISTANCE.
