Exporting Goods or Technology
Foreign visitors, vendors and collaborators

A restricted party screening is a one-minute procedure where we ensure that a person is not listed on a government "restricted party" list. Please submit names of any foreign visitors, vendors or collaborators who may receive technical information by submitting a Restricted Party Screening (doc)
