Is a strategic goods determination certificate mandatory (for HS-verified items)?
Machine translated
I am exporting items such as clothing overseas. For the current shipment, customs has requested a strategic goods determination certificate for items under HS code 6307.90-9000. Since these are simply goods made of fabric, I am wondering if a determination certificate is strictly necessary.

- 0In accordance with the international export control regimes listed below, we operate the Public Notice on Export and Import of Strategic Items, designating mass destruction weapons and other items that require export licensing or other restrictions to maintain international peace, security, and national security. A. Wassenaar Arrangement (WA) B. Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) C. Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR) D. Australia Group (AG) E. Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and on their Destruction (CWC) F. Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Bacteriological (Biological) and Toxin Weapons and on their Destruction (BWC) For strategic items, you must first determine whether the item is subject to these controls, and if so, obtain the necessary licenses or permits. There are two types of determinations: self-determination and professional determination. Self-determination is conducted by the exporting company itself, and a determination certificate can only be issued after completing a certain level of training. During export customs clearance, Customs manages the status of strategic items by HS code through an electronic system, and HS code 6307.90-9000 is listed as an item requiring verification of strategic status. Therefore, even if the item is not a strategic item, you must proceed with customs clearance by submitting a determination certificate to Customs after conducting a determination.Machine translated
