Important Info on Foreign Research Clearances
|
|
Are you or any member in your science party bringing in any science equipment items which are regulated for export by the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and/or the Export Administration Regulations (EAR)?
|
No |
If yes, have you applied for the necessary permits through your export control office?
|
No |
Questions about ITAR/EAR regulations?

Requested Start Port |
Intermediate Port(s) |
Requested End Port |
Miami, FL, USA |
None |
Miami, FL, USA |
Explanation/justification for requested ports and dates of intermediate stops or to list additional port stops |
The Smith provides the closest port (we wish to sail with the ship from/to the US-- we have not budgeted foreign travel for this cruise). While we could use a different vessel, transit days given (2) assumes one day each way from Miami, because Smith is so fast. If coming from further away, we would need more transit time. |
