End User Statements and Declarations

An End User Statement (EUS) is used to obtain the information from sold-to business partners about the usage of the item being sold. The EUS allows you to verify that an end user is a reliable recipient, and the exported item(s) are used in accordance with specified regulations, such as Export Administration Regulations (EAR) or International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). An EUS is required by many governments to restrict the shipping of goods to destinations that are not in accordance with the regulations.

An End User Declaration (EUD) is used to manage import (and domestic inbound) licenses for items being purchased. An EUD is required to identify the kind of items that can be purchased based on the End User Statements (EUS) that are export controlled.
