By joining NCITD you gain direct access to the policy makers who participate in government and international relations. You also gain access to our membership -- experienced professionals who can provide practical perspectives on compliance with complex regulations. You can also download a copy of our membership brochure here.

• A voice in Washington that addresses current export and import regulatory issues through formal correspondence with appropriate regulatory agencies.

• A one-on-one monthly dialogue with policy makers.

• A forum to offer informal constructive feedback on “proposed” regulations.

• Seminars and workshops.

• Access to monthly meeting minutes.

• An opportunity to benchmark with member companies.

• A network of experienced professionals offering practical advice on complex export and import related regulatory issues.

• A reduced burden in consulting and legal fees.

• A positive and proactive relationship with government officials through "off the record" dialogue.

• NCITD's reputation for valuable views on international trade issues.

Membership in the NCITD is open to anyone with an interest in international issues. Companies with activities in the areas of import and export are strongly encouraged to join.
