The Supplier Export Classification Request Checklist

What’s inside

• Part A — what to request, item by item: jurisdiction, full classification and reasoning, encryption, de minimis and FDP basis, shipment conditions, signature
• Part B — ten red flags, from the bare code and the HS code to EAR99 on a foreign-made item, and a 60-second acceptance gate
• Part C — a model request you can send today, and an answer record to file with the reply
• Free to share with colleagues and suppliers, in its complete and unmodified form
