U.S. EXPORT CONTROLS

As a U.S. defense manufacturer, Planar Monolithics is required to safeguard U.S. defense-related and other export-controlled articles, technologies, and services from unauthorized access, export, or re-export.

The transfer of U.S. export-controlled articles, technologies, or services (including manufacturing processes) to individuals or entities that do not qualify as “U.S. persons,” as defined by 22 CFR 120.62, is prohibited without prior authorization from the appropriate U.S. government agencies, such as the Department of State’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC).

Under 22 CFR 120.62, a “U.S. person” is defined as a lawful permanent resident as per 8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(20), or a protected individual under 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3). It also includes any corporation, business association, partnership, society, trust, or other entity that is incorporated to do business in the United States, as well as governmental entities at the federal, state, or local levels. It does not include foreign persons as defined in § 120.63.

To ensure compliance with U.S. export control regulations, candidates for this position are required to undergo an Export Compliance Assessment. As part of this process, candidates may be asked to provide documentation verifying their status as “U.S. persons” or “foreign persons,” in accordance with U.S. regulation, to determine whether prior authorization is required to perform specific job duties related to this position.
