Shipping Items to Foreign Destinations

Compliance with export controls for physical shipments is a shared responsibility, involving the Office of Export Controls (OEC), 抖阴旅行射 Mail and Package Services (抖阴旅行射 Mail), and the 抖阴旅行射-affiliated individual initiating the shipment.

Export controls apply to almost any physical item shipped from the University to a foreign destination, regardless of whether the item is sold, donated, loaned, or used in the field for research. Even items shipped to a 抖阴旅行射 employee, for only temporary use abroad, as well as items shipped as part of a fundamental research project, must be cleared and documented for export controls compliance. Although the majority of items will not likely require an export license, there are still requirements to file the appropriate electronic export information (EEI) describing the shipment, to classify the item according to relevant rules, and to assess the intended foreign end-user.

Shipments to high-risk countries (see high-risk country list), and foreign shipments valued over $2500, must be approved by OEC prior to leaving campus, and must be coordinated through 抖阴旅行射 Mail.

When seeking OEC approval and coordinating through 抖阴旅行射 Mail, the 抖阴旅行射-affiliated person preparing the shipment must provide the following information:

The description of the item being shipped, including any technical specifications;
The intended end-use and end-user of the item; and
The final destination (address/location of end use) and any intermediate destinations (country).

Export controls review must be accomplished regardless of whether the item will be processed and shipped through 抖阴旅行射 Mail Services or via an outside facilitator conducted from an individual account by personnel from an institute, department or campus office. 抖阴旅行射 policy allows some flexibility in how this review can be accomplished, depending on who initiates and facilitates the shipment and where it is going.

If the shipment will be conducted through 抖阴旅行射 Mail (i.e., the physical item is provided to 抖阴旅行射 Mail, and it prepares the package and shipping documents), the interested person will complete the following forms and provide information to 抖阴旅行射 Mail as to pick up in a timely manner.
If the shipment will be conducted through an outside courier or other shipping facilitator, to include when the package is prepared by the 抖阴旅行射-affiliated person, and 抖阴旅行射 Mail picks up fully prepared and labelled package, then a notification form must be completed on the 抖阴旅行射 Mail website.

Failure to secure compliance under the University's export policy prior to shipment, makes the shipment outside the scope of 抖阴旅行射 employment. This may have repercussions when determining liability and consequences for export control violations.
