Hiring Foreign Nationals

The International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) govern the export and import of defense-related articles and services listed on the United States Munitions List (USML). While ITAR compliance strengthens national security, it also presents challenges for businesses seeking to tap into global talent. Hiring foreign nationals in the defense sector can be a sensitive task, especially considering ITAR’s stringent restrictions on sharing technical data with foreign persons. However, by adopting the right strategies and technologies, you can ensure ITAR compliance without stifling your company’s global reach.
