Export compliance means following all the laws, rules, and regulations when sending goods from one country to another. It includes preparing the correct documents, following customs requirements, and making sure the products can legally be exported to the destination country.

- Compliance is verified before export approval.
Benefits:
- Prevents legal issues and penalties
