Get Legal Advice For Unlicensed US Military Cargo Seized At German Airports If you transport military equipment via Germany to Europe, Middle East, Africa, and Asia you may be exposed to criminal prosecution without the correct licenses. Expert attorneys of Kanzlei Roth Export Controlling in German and European Union weapon transport controls have launched a unique range of legal services for US and Canadian defense manufacturers, export/import defense industry traders, and freight forwarders. As many organizations shipping military firearms to or from continental North America using convenient stopovers in Germany and Europe, the recently upgraded services are designed to assist you and your company if you face legal problems due to missing transport licenses. Many exporters and importers transporting military goods via Germany think that the US Munitions List license is enough. However, any flight landing on German soil needs a German war weapons transport license, too. European laws are similar. Transport of war weapons in Germany without license is a criminal offense that results in cargo seizure and criminal prosecution. The State Attorney controls a window for investigation of 20 years: 10 years into the past, and for today's violations ten years into the future Customs inspections of transiting aircraft, even only for refueling, have become more frequent. German customs officers can easily spot war weapons cargo without entering the aircraft. Corporate files can be backtracked for 10 years. When war weapons are found at the airport without a transport license, the cargo is seized and the German State Attorney starts criminal prosecution. In such cases, Kanzlei Roth Export Controlling will act on behalf of your organization to ensure the timely release of the goods and minimization of fines and damages. In the first instance, the firm will apply immediately for a fast track license despite the ongoing criminal investigation. Attorneys will then petition the German State Attorney for release of the cargo, as well as lowering of the punishment from prison to fine. https://export-control.com for more information and 24-7 contact!
