“Complying with U.S. Export Controls”

September 24-25, 2024

Milpitas, California

This two-day program is led by BIS’s professional counseling staff and provides an in-depth examination of the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). The program will cover the information exporters need to know to comply with U.S. export control requirements under these regulations. We will focus on what items and activities are subject to the EAR; steps to determine export licensing requirements; how to determine export control classification numbers (ECCNs); when you can export or reexport without applying for a license; Automated Export System (AES) procedures and requirements; sanctions programs; Export Compliance Program (ECP) concepts; and real-life examples in applying this information. Presenters will conduct “hands-on” exercises that will prepare you to apply the regulations to your company’s or organization’s export activities. This one-of-a-kind program is well suited for those who need a comprehensive understanding of their obligations under the EAR.

Continuing legal education credit (MCLE) is available, and varies with the length of each seminar, for California State Bar members.

Location/Time

The program will be held at the Sonesta San Jose-Milpitas Hotel, 777 Bellew Drive, Milpitas, CA 95035.  Registration will begin at 7:30am on Tuesday, September 24, 2024.  The program starts at 8:30am and ends at 4:30pm on both days.
