ITAR Compliance Notice

Current ITAR Compliance Status

AMD Machines is currently NOT compliant with International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR).

Our manufacturing operations are conducted outside of the United States, which means we cannot currently accept projects involving:

• Defense articles listed on the United States Munitions List (USML)
• ITAR controlled technical data
• Defense services as defined under ITAR
• Projects requiring U.S. person access restrictions
• Any work subject to export control regulations under 22 CFR Parts 120 through 130

Critical Warning: Our Email Is Not a Safe Channel

Do not send ITAR controlled technical data to sales@amdmachines.com or to any other email address on the amdmachines.com domain.

Every mailbox on amdmachines.com, including sales@amdmachines.com, is potentially monitored, accessed, and administered by Mexican nationals. Transmitting ITAR controlled technical data to any amdmachines.com address may constitute an export to a foreign person and could place both the sender and AMD Machines in violation of ITAR.

This warning applies to message bodies, attachments, drawings, CAD models, specifications, photographs, and links to file sharing services. There is no exception for encrypted attachments, password protected files, or material marked as proprietary.

AMD Machines Has No Designated ITAR Contact Point

AMD Machines does not maintain a designated ITAR contact point, and no email address, form, or file upload on this website is approved for ITAR controlled information.

If you believe a project may involve ITAR controlled information, the first step is to notify AMD Machines that the project may be ITAR sensitive. Do not describe the controlled content. Provide only your name, your company, a telephone number, and the statement that the project may involve ITAR controlled information.

AMD Machines will then respond with the applicable guideline for how that information must be handled, and will identify what channel, if any, may be used for any further exchange.

Written Confirmation of Destination Is Required

For any ITAR project, no material of any kind may be sent to AMD Machines until AMD Machines has provided written confirmation of the specific address, physical or electronic, to which that material may be sent.

Material transmitted to any address that has not been confirmed in writing by AMD Machines is sent without our authorization. AMD Machines accepts no responsibility for material sent to an unconfirmed address and cannot guarantee that such material was not routed through, stored on, or accessed from systems administered outside the United States.

What is ITAR?

The International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) is a set of United States government regulations that control the export and import of defense related articles and services on the United States Munitions List (USML). ITAR requires that access to controlled technical data and defense articles be restricted to U.S. persons unless authorization from the Department of State is received or an exemption applies.

Our Path Forward

AMD Machines recognizes the importance of serving customers in defense and aerospace industries who require ITAR compliant automation solutions. We are actively developing plans to establish United States based manufacturing capabilities to service ITAR regulated industries.

Current Initiatives:

• Preparing for ITAR registration in coordination with export-control counsel
• Evaluating locations for United States based manufacturing facilities
• Developing partnerships with ITAR registered organizations
• Building a domestic engineering and manufacturing team
• Preparing compliance infrastructure and procedures

Security Reminders

When contacting AMD Machines about a project that may involve ITAR controlled information:

1. DO NOT include any controlled technical data in your communications
2. DO NOT share ITAR regulated specifications, drawings, models, or documentation
3. DO NOT send any information that could be considered export controlled
4. DO NOT treat any amdmachines.com email address as a compliant channel
5. DO limit your first contact to a statement that the project may be ITAR sensitive
6. DO wait for written confirmation from AMD Machines of the approved handling guideline and destination address before sending anything
