Trade Party Screening:
Do You Know Who You’re Exporting To?

No matter who you are, where you are located, and what you are exporting, governments prohibit you from exporting to certain people, companies, organizations and countries. In the United States, exporters must make sure they aren’t shipping to anyone on one of several government lists of restricted parties or risk violating the Export Administration Regulations (EAR).

In order to protect your right to export, you should be checking at least 10 different U.S. government lists including those published by the U.S. Department of Commerce (Denied Persons List, Entity List, Unverified List of End Users and List of Foreign Terrorist Organizations); the Department of Treasury (Office of Foreign Assets Control); U.S. Customs Service (U.S. Convict and Child Labor Violators and U.S. List of Illegal Textile Transshippers); Defense Department (List of Debarred Parties denied export privileges under the International traffic in Arms Regulations or ITAR); and Presidential Executive Orders and other notices published in the Federal Register.

In addition, the United Nations, European Union, Japan and Canada also publish lists of people and organizations with whom exporters are prohibited from trading.

Rather than checking each of these lists individually, Shipping Solutions Online Trade Party Screening tool makes it easy for you to check all these lists at one time right from your computer desktop. And because this information is stored online on our secure web server, you can be sure that you are accessing the most current information available.

How It Works

Trade Party Screening - Step 2

With the results you’ll be able to compare your trade partners against names and address on 16 different “bad guy” lists, find what country and agency put them on the list, and when, if ever, they expire from the list. For certain results you’ll even be able to click on a pdf version of the actual published prohibition that added a person or organization on one of the lists.
