Import/Export Control & Compliance

Business operations both within the United States and abroad are impacted by import and export control regulations.   The United States has import and export control regulations in place to advance critical national security, foreign policy and economic objectives. Companies that do not abide by the rules expose themselves to significant risk.  Civil penalties include hefty fines, confiscation of products and potential disbarment from shipping or receiving goods altogether.  Criminal penalties can reach as high as $1 million per violation and up to 20 years imprisonment.
