International Traffic in Arms Regulations: Electronic Payment of Registration Fees

摘要

The Department of State is amending the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) to change the method of payment to electronic submission of registration fees. The institution of the electronic submission of registration fees will simplify the collection and verification of payments, eliminate the need to manually process and collect returned payments, and eliminate the possibility of lost payments. Definitions for "Foreign Ownership" and "Foreign Control" are also added.
