Are you familiar with the ITAR and EAR for U.S. government export control?

ITAR stands for International Traffic in Arms Regulations, which regulates defense-specific items and services, while EAR is the Export Administration Regulations, which governs "dual-use" items that have both commercial and military applications. Both regulations are managed by different departments: ITAR by the Department of State and EAR by the Department of Commerce.
