International Military Customers

Welcome! We are pleased to be able to serve your computer and office product needs and we do our best to offer you the same service as our domestic customers. The following information will help answer your questions and also let you know what legal obligations you have when purchasing product from us.

We are currently shipping and downloading thousands of products internationally to military bases. However, some products are not available for export due to restrictions made by the publisher or manufacturer, or because of U.S. law regarding the export of encryption. We will do our best to tell you if your order is not allowed but you should be aware of your legal obligations.

You are required by law to follow U.S. export control restrictions. You are therefore prohibited from purchasing products which contain DES data and/or file encryption or any other restricted technology.

It remains the legal obligation of the individual who accesses this service to comply with the U.S. State Department regulations which govern the transfer of certain products which are designed to meet military specifications and/or used in military applications (products which contain DES data and/or file encryption).

No computer products may be downloaded or otherwise exported (1) into (or to a national or resident of) Cuba, Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Iran, Syria or any other country to which the U.S. has embargoed goods; or (2) to anyone on the U.S. Commerce Department's list of Specially Designated Nationals, or the U.S. Commerce Department's Table of Deny Orders.
