International Shipping

International Shipping Information

There are a number of items which FCLASSPRODUCTS and Blake Barrel and Rifle sells that may require either US State Department approval or Department of Commerce approval and an export license is necessary before they can be shipped out of the United States. The regulations are complex and constantly changing but we are here to help you understand what is needed and will gladly work with you to correctly accomplish the task.

Generally speaking, items which need a license are:

  • Firearms - actions or completed rifle builds

  • Firearms Parts - such as barrels, triggers, etc.

  • Reloading Components - such as brass, bullets, primers, etc.

Licenses from the US State Department and the Department of Commerce take time to receive. It can easily take 30-60 days to obtain an export license, so plan ahead accordingly.

FClassProducts/Blake Barrel and Rifle has an obligation to monitor our shipments for both direct and indirect exports. A direct export is when an order is placed by someone outside of the United States and then ships out of the US when all the required licenses have been successfully issued for that order. An indirect export is where an order is placed by a customer outside of the US and then is shipped to another location within the United States. Both of these examples could need an export license to take place. Generally speaking it is FClassProducts policy not to ship any order to a known forwarder or carrier within the United States that is not pre-approved by us.

There are a number of things which need to be checked and verified for an export order and FClassProducts is diligent to conduct the required procedures as specified by the law. FClassProducts/ Blake Barrel and Rifle will swiftly report any violations to the appropriate governing authorities of any potential customer which seeks to break those laws.

For firearms, firearms parts, and some other items you will be required to provide an import permit or certificate from your government for us to include along with the export application for your order. If your country does not require an import license, you will need to post us a certified letter reflecting this information.

The International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) is administered by The Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) through the US Department of State. Click here for more information on License Support Documentation information from DDTC:
