Renewal registration packages (pursuant to ITAR Section 122.3) must be submitted and received by the Office of Defense Trade Controls Compliance (Compliance & Registration Division) 30 days prior to expiration of the registration. The office recommends, however, that renewal packages be submitted up to a maximum of 60 days prior to expiration date. Registration must be current to apply for licenses or other approvals or to use ITAR exemptions. A renewal package requires all the same documentation as an initial registration package.
