All About AES and Export Control Reform

January 22, 2014 1:00 PM EST

Export control reform means big changes to the ITAR and the EAR. But it also means new rules for the Automated Export System (AES) -- including some fundamental requirements like when filing is required and what details must be provided.

This is important stuff. The truth is they're watching you. CBP, BIS, DDTC and other federal agencies monitor information in AES. Over shipments, mismatched license numbers, inappropriate use of license exceptions and exemptions, sensitive destinations, blacklisted consignees, descriptions inconsistent with other data elements -- all this and more is visible to regulators and enforcement agencies in AES. How confident are you that your company's shipments are being properly filed? Or that they are even being filed at all?

Before AES, most export data was generally locked up on paper forms. The Census Bureau eventually collated this data into statistics, but seldom did anyone review it for enforcement purposes. But AES is a different world -- a treasure trove of information at the fingertips of law enforcement and compliance specialists who can use it to spot anomalies and take action before or after an export occurs. In spite of this environment, compliance with Electronic Export Information (EEI) filing requirements in AES is often a low priority for exporters. This webinar is your opportunity towards improving the reliability and accuracy of your company's AES submissions.

This program will include discussion of the following questions:

• What are AES and EEI?
• Who is responsible for filing EEI?
• When am I required to file EEI?
• How are 600 series items treated?
• What about License Exception STA exports?
• Are some exports exempt?
• How do I claim an exemption?
• What are my options for making the filing?
• How far in advance of an export am I required to file?
• What information do I need to complete an EEI submission?
• How do I explain my export control authorization (NLR, exception/exemption or license) in AES?
• What about temporary exports?

Our All About AES and Export Control Reform Webinar will provide PowerPoint slides and include live video and commentary from Scott Gearity who brings over a decade of consulting, training and corporate export compliance program management experience to bear for his clients.
