All U.S. exporters, including manufacturers, resellers, and distributors, must have the knowledge of the end-user and the ultimate destination country of exportation, and if applicable other entities who will access to the items in transit. Several U.S. government and foreign government agencies generate and maintain the lists of prohibited and restricted entities. Before proceeding with an export of a product or a disclosure of a technical data, exporters are obligated to screen the entities and ultimate destinations of the products and/or the recipients of the technology. U.S. Export Administration Regulations also require exporters to classify the goods, software, and technologies, make an appropriate license determination and ensure the compliance at all steps of exporting.
