Please join Holland & Knight for an in-depth webinar that will discuss the tools and strategies needed to confidently navigate jurisdiction and classification assessments under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and Export Administration Regulations (EAR). As recent enforcement cases show, failing to correctly determine an item's export control jurisdiction and classification can lead to a host of violations and significant compliance challenges.
Our webinar will provide practical guidance on effectively performing jurisdiction and classification assessments through the order of review while sharing best practices for conducting determinations, documenting the decision and addressing complex scenarios. The session will also delve into advanced issues, such as managing situations where third parties or government agencies scrutinize self-determinations.
Additionally, the webinar will explore formal processes such as the ITAR's commodity jurisdiction (CJ) procedure and the EAR's Commodity Classification Automated Tracking System (CCATS).
Partner Christopher Stagg will share his extensive experience and knowledge from private practice and government. Previously, he played a key role in rewriting the ITAR at the U.S. Department of State's Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) and has advised companies under consent agreements on implementing jurisdiction and classification programs that satisfy government scrutiny.
