Iran's models can not receive? How to close?

Due to Iran's long-term sanctions by the United States, most banks refused to accept payments from Iran in order to evade risks. Iranian clients sometimes make remittances from Dubai.

Doing business with Iranian enterprises will be sanctioned?

For example, a trading company in Qingdao sent a sample of cloth, flame-retardant cloth and machine parts to Iranian guests. The result was inexplicable. Last year, it was on the blacklist of U.S. sanctions. The shipping companies demanded that they write a lot of assurance documents to ensure that the goods are not related to the military. More troubling, the bank called to stop the company from depositing or doing business in their bank.

U.S. sanctions are based on the "violation of the ban on the sale of weapons and equipment related to weapons of mass destruction to Iran." The United States requires that the U.S. government agencies not engage in any relationship with the above-mentioned entities or individuals; they should not provide any projects and sign contracts to these entities or individuals; they should not sell any arms to these entities or individuals; and they should not issue any new businesses to these entities or individuals Permits and licenses have been revoked licenses issued.

Here to remind you foreign trade, exports to sanctioned areas of goods, we must fully grasp in their own hands, with particular attention to export agents. Do not touch sanctions or sensitive parts.
