Qualifications for U.S. Exporters Listing on Local U.S. Commercial Service Websites

Most U.S. companies with a U.S.-made product available for export overseas will qualify for a listing on local U.S. Commercial Service websites that have a "Featured U.S. Exporters" directory.

Typically, U.S. exporters will use this service to seek a manufacturer's representative, distributor, buyers, or franchisees in non-U.S. markets.

However, the following types of listings may not be posted to local U.S. Commercial Service websites:

  • For agricultural products for which the Foreign Agricultural Serviceprovides export promotion services
  • For products for which the U.S. Commercial Service is prohibited by law from providing export promotion services
  • For products of companies that do not provide complete or accurate information when registering
  • For products which are not U.S.-made
  • For products which, in the local market for which a posting is requested, are currently not viable due to local market regulation or other conditions
  • For products which, if listed in a particular local website's directory, may hurt the overall effectiveness of the website by offending local norms
  • For products the exporter is currently unable to supply

The final determination of the suitability of a listing will be made by the management of each U.S. Commercial Service office for which a listing on the local website is requested, or by the Featured U.S. Exporters Program Manager, in the case of requests for listings in the directories of multiple markets' websites.

Unfortunately, due to the high volume of requests for listings, we are unable to respond to requests from companies that do not qualify for free listings. If you are unsure, please contact a Trade Specialist at your nearest U.S. Export Assistance Center first, before registering.
