What is the United States Munitions List (USML) and what are the associated AES filing requirements?
The USML is established under the International Traffic In Arms Regulations (ITAR) (22CFR Parts 120-130), administered by the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC), an agency of the U. S. Department of State. This list includes articles, services, and related technical data controlled by the U.S. Department of State. AES filing is required for licensed cargo under DSP-5, DSP-61, DSP-73, DSP-85, and DSP-94, and for certain agreements and license exemptions as defined in the ITAR, regardless of value. An additional data record is required in the AES for DDTC shipments.
