Exporting

Required State License(s):

 None

Other Possible License(s):

Most export transactions do not require specific approval.  In some instances, an exporter should obtain, in advance, a special export permission called a license.  Licenses are required in export situations involving national security, foreign policy, short-supply, nuclear nonproliferation, missile technology, chemical and biological weapons, regional stability, crime control, or terrorist concerns.  Licensed exports are controlled by the Federal Government.
