The DoS Export Control and Related Border Security (EXBS) program provides assistance to foreign governments to ensure that their strategic trade control (STC) systems meet international standards, to assist in establishing appropriate national legal authorities and independent capabilities to regulate legitimate trade in dual-use items and conventional arms, create authorities and capabilities to identify, interdict, and investigate illicit shipments by nefarious actors seeking to bypass the authorization system, and to prosecute those who violated the law.
EXBS program implementation includes technical assistance and training activities, legal-regulatory consultations, assessments of national export control systems in EXBS partner countries, equipment maintenance and repair, global and regional conferences, deployment and enhancement of automated licensing systems and upgrade of other tools, and training curriculum development. These activities facilitate long-term, systemic change.
