As a general rule, international travel should not involve export-controlled equipment, materials, software, or technology (together "items") without first consulting with OEC. If you are unsure as to whether your item is export-controlled, OEC can assist in both classifying the technology, as well as assessing the risk involved. The Office of Export Control will work with you to identify ways to mitigate risks - looking at the countries, foreign parties, and technology involved - in a manner that continues to facilitate your research.
