§ 126.4

Transfers by or for the United States Government

ITAR · Part 126

A major exemption for exports and temporary imports by or for the U.S. Government, including FMS-adjacent and USG-contractor fact patterns that the section enumerates. It is not “any DoD program.” The contractor must be on a USG authorization, the shipment must be for the USG, and 126.1 still constrains some uses. Permanent exports that are really commercial FMS-parallel sales belong on a license or FMS case, not this exemption.

A DoD contract number on a commercial invoice is not, by itself, § 126.4.
