DDTC Publishes List of Debarred Parties
The Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) has published in the Federal Register a list of the 20 persons that are currently debarred as a result of violating the the Arms Export Control Act (AECA).
Section 127.7 of the ITAR provides for "statutory debarment" of any person who has been convicted of violating or conspiring to violate the AECA. Persons subject to statutory debarment are prohibited from participating directly or indirectly in the export of defense articles, including technical data, or in the furnishing of defense services for which a license or other approval is required.
Exporters of defense articles or services should be sure to screen their transactions to ensure that none of the 20 debarred parties are involved in their transaction.
