Fax/Mail Form to Request BSP Listing

BSP is designed to help U.S. exporters identify professional export service providers in their local communities, or in another state or region, to assist them in the assessment, completion, or financing of an export transaction.

Export service providers gain visibility for their products and services within the exporting community via participation in the BSP.

Participation Guidelines & Price

U.S. and non-U.S. professional service companies have the option to promote their company on one or more U.S. websites. A listing on a U.S. website costs $300 per year, per listing, and includes the following:

• Detailed company description (maximum 500 characters)
• Company logo
• Company contact information
• Corporate website link

Participating companies can expect to receive initial counseling on the BSP service and a navigational tour of CS websites. During the registration process, clients will receive the specifications for a BSP listing, such as text limits, graphic requirements, etc.

Participating companies will also receive information regarding client responsibilities and CS quality assurances. Upon receipt of payment, the CS will complete a short qualification review of the participating client. Website development for the BSP listing will begin immediately thereafter.
