ITAR stands for which regulation?

• A. International Traffic in Arms Regulations
• B. International Trade in Arms Rules
• C. Internal Transportation and Allocation Regulations
• D. Inventory and Tracking Regulations

Answer: (A)

ITAR stands for International Traffic in Arms Regulations. These are U.S. regulations that control the export and transfer of defense articles and defense services, including technical data and software related to defense. Administered by the Department of State’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls, ITAR uses the United States Munitions List to classify items. When something is ITAR-controlled, licensing is typically required before exporting, sharing with foreign persons, or transferring defense-related information, and there are strict end-use and end-user restrictions. Violations can carry heavy penalties. The other phrasings don’t reflect the official terminology of this regime.
