Given how complicated the trade sanctions regimes can be, I would suggest the member engage competent trade regulatory compliance counsel on the front-end, optimally before executing a sales contract with a high-risk customer from a compliance standpoint. Among other competent law firms, I am familiar with Schulz Trade Law PLLC (http://www.shulztradelaw.com). Michelle Schulz, their managing partner, and her team are particularly well-versed in ITAR, dual-use exports, EAR, import duties and tariff reduction, Section 301 and 232 exclusions, e-commerce, CIFIUS, FTZs, free trade agreements, international contracts, sanctions and embargoes, encryption and trade data reporting to the US Census Bureau, and FCPA. Based in Dallas, they work for several recognizable corporate names in aerospace, energy, telecom & technology, healthcare, manufacturing, and transportation.
Her contact information is as follows:
