Destination Control Statement

Destination Control Statement is a statement that appears on shipping documents, indicating that the cargo is destined for a specific country or end-user. It is a legal requirement in the United States and is used to ensure that the cargo is not diverted to an unauthorized destination or recipient. The statement typically reads, “These commodities, technology, or software were exported from the United States of America for ultimate destination _____. Diversion contrary to U.S. law is prohibited.”
