The U.S. government Trade Information Request is at the core of the President’s National Export Strategy and its goal to show U.S. support at key events for American companies in the international marketplace. The purpose of the Advocacy Trade Information Request Form is to evaluate senior-level U.S. Government (USG) witnessing requests of a commercial milestone, designed to highlight a company’s commercial success in an overseas project or procurement competition. The Advocacy Center, appropriate ITA officials, U.S. Embassies/Consulates worldwide, and other federal government agencies that provide advocacy support to U.S. firms, will request firm(s) seeking USG advocacy support to complete the Trade Information Request Form.

The information derived from a completed form is critical in helping the Advocacy Center determine whether it is in the U.S. national interest to advocate a specific milestone.
