• Why File Voluntary Self-Disclosures (VSD)? If you suspect that your organization may have violated the Export Administration Regulations (EAR), VSDs will serve as a strong indication of your organization’s commitment to complying with U.S. export control requirements. Proactively disclosing a violation demonstrates good faith and cooperation, which regulatory bodies often reward with more lenient treatment compared to a discovery made through an audit or investigation.
