Electronic Export Information (EEI)

Electronic Export Information (EEI) is a digital record that U.S. exporters file with the government before shipping goods out of the country. It provides details about the export, such as what is being shipped, its value, destination, and parties involved. This information helps government agencies track exports for security, trade compliance, and statistical purposes. Filing EEI is required for most exports valued over a specific threshold or when certain goods are involved. It ensures transparency and facilitates lawful international trade while supporting national security and economic analysis.
