ITAR is the set of U.S. export controls, administered by the U.S. Department of State, that control the export of defense-related articles, services, and technologies on the United States Munitions List (USML). Export controls for most non-USML exports are administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security. It is important that anyone who exports, manufacturers, or brokers controlled goods be aware of these regulations.
