The Bureau of Industry & Security (BIS) has posted a detailed guideline manual regarding their tips for establishing an export management program.

Read the 145-page PDF here: COMPLIANCE GUIDELINES: HOW TO DEVELOP AN EFFECTIVE EXPORT MANAGEMENT AND COMPLIANCE PROGRAM AND MANUAL

I do not have time to read through the manual in detail at the moment, but from a brief lookover it appears to have some great tips for getting management onboard during a compliance project, how to contact BIS if you have export questions, key points for export compliance training, and information on recordkeeping.

It’s a very valuable document for trade compliance professionals – probably useful to save to your desktop for quick reference!

If you are more of a auditory learner, check out the below webinar for more tips on establishing (or enhancing) your export compliance program.
