Shipping Guidelines

Research Electronics International (REI) products are designed and intended for legal commercial applications. However, because laws and regulations vary from state to state and country to country, it is the sole responsibility of the purchaser and user/operator to check and comply with all applicable laws and regulations for the possession and operation of this equipment before and after making a purchase.

REI products, components, and technology are subject to the U.S. Export Administration Regulations and other U.S. export controls and sanctions laws and may be subject to similar laws, regulations, or requirements in other countries. Any export, re-export, or transfer of any REI products, components, or technology must be conducted in compliance with such applicable laws and regulations.  Diversion contrary to U.S. law is strictly prohibited.

Unless authorized by the U.S. Government, REI prohibits the export and re-export of REI equipment, software, services, and technology to destinations subject to U.S. embargoes or trade sanctions. See the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) website for information on U.S. embargoes and economic sanctions.  See the U.S. Department of State Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) website for information on additional embargoed countries for shipments of military items.

U.S. export restrictions vary from country to country and from item to item.  The most restricted destinations include Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria (REI products are strictly prohibited in these countries). This list is subject to change without notice.  For current information on U.S. embargoed and sanctioned countries, as well as information on U.S. Export regulations and laws, please see the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) U.S. Department of Commerce, the OFAC site referenced above, and the U.S. Department of State Directorate of Defense and Trade Controls.

U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act

The US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended (the “FCPA” or the “Act”), makes it illegal for U.S. citizens and companies, their officers, directors, employees and agents, and any stockholders or others acting on their behalf, as well as foreign companies and persons acting in the United States, to make payments to foreign government officials to assist in obtaining or retaining business. REI acts in accordance to the FCPA, and REI resellers and sales partners must also comply with the FCPA. Please see the United States Department of Justice website for more information.
