Abstract of Proposed Collection

    The ITAR requires that persons registered with DDTC maintain 
records pertaining to defense trade-related transactions. This

procedures, and to help assess whether potential AECA or ITAR 
violations merit administrative sanctions or referral to the Department 
of Justice for possible criminal prosecution.

Methodology

    Respondents may maintain records in any format consistent with the 
provisions in ITAR Sec.  122.5.

    Dated: February 20, 2018.
