I. Abstract 

The United States and several other

over international trade in strategic 

commodities by means of an Import 

Certificate procedure. For the U.S.

where required by the exporting 

country, the importer submits an 

international import certificate to the 

U.S. Government to certify that he/she 

will import commodities into the 

United States and will not reexport such 

commodities, except in accordance with 

the export control regulations of the 

United States. The U.S. Government, in 

turn, certifies that such representations 

have been made.
