EAR & ITAR NOTICE:
Products purchased from this website may contain hardware/technical data within the definition of 15 CFR Chapter VII, Subchapter C – EXPORT ADMINISTRATION REGULATIONS Part 730 through 774, as well as 22 CFR Chapter I, Subchapter M – INTERNATIONAL TRAFFIC IN ARMS REGULATIONS part 120 through 130,and may be subject to the export control laws of the U.S.
The unauthorized reproduction, dissemination, or transfer of these products or technical data by any method to a foreign person, whether within the U.S. or abroad without the written authorization of the Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry & Security (BIS), Department of State Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC), or Department of Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Controls (OFAC) is strictly prohibited by law. (Please see 15 C.F.R., 22 C.F.R., 18 U.S.C., 22 U.S.C., and 50 U.S.C. for additional information)
Due to these laws and regulations, HighCom Armor is required to only sell our products to lawful U.S. persons unless with an approved export license and therefore we use a simple method to verify proof of citizenship/residency before processing and delivering purchased protective products. By placing an order on our website you agree to these requirements and that a request for your passport, birth certificate, and/or other form of identification may be required. If you refuse to provide this information your order will be canceled and a full refund will be provided.
Q. Why does HighCom Armor require proof of U.S. person status and others don’t?
A. This is a HighCom Armor company policy and we are unable to speak on behalf of other companies. However, export compliance is extremely important to HighCom and because of U.S. laws restricting the sale/transfer of controlled items (Body Armor) to foreign persons, HighCom has found the most effective, quickest, and easiest method while also keeping administration costs low in order to pass along savings to our customers is in the form of requiring a birth certificate or passport as proof of citizenship/residency.
Some individuals may question this as us refusing to sell to law abiding citizens and this could not be further from the truth. In fact, the entire point of this policy is to ensure we are only selling to legal law abiding U.S. persons. Please know that although other companies may accept a driver’s license as proof of citizenship/residency this is not an effective way for HighCom to prove citizenship/residency as many States within the U.S. are now allowing foreign persons and even illegal aliens to obtain drivers licenses and other federal and state identification and benefits.
HighCom Armor is a manufacturer and exporter of defense articles who maintains sales to legal U.S. person as well as federal, state, and local law enforcement and DOD contracts in addition to support of foreign military and coalition forces globally. The risk posed with a foreign person obtaining this equipment whether internationally or domestically without the proper approval is too great for HighCom to take without this simple policy. We understand there are alternative choices in the market and are not forcing this policy on anyone who chooses to buy elsewhere. Please know your business is extremely important to us and so is the National Security of the United States. Please know these are real laws and regulations and not something we have made up to complicate our business practices.
To learn more about these regulations and laws please visit the agency websites below;
The word export, as used in the ITAR, includes the obvious activities of sending or taking any ITAR-controlled commodity or information out of the United States. However, the term export also includes transferring EAR and ITAR-controlled commodities or information within the United States to anyone not a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident (with certain narrow exceptions). Given this definition, transfers of ITAR controlled commodities or information to non-U.S. employees of U.S. companies entirely within the U.S. are exports.
If the individual is not a U.S person, when applying the “deemed export” rules the EAR looks at the person’s most recent citizenship or permanent residence whereas the ITAR looks at the person’s country of origin (i.e., country of birth) and all current citizenship’s.
The most important phrase, from which most other ITAR definitions flow, is the phrase “defense article.” The ITAR defines “defense article” as any item or “technical data” identified on the USML, which is set forth in Part 121.1 of the ITAR. The definition of defense article additionally includes models, mockups, and other physical forms that reveal technical data directly relating to USML items.
BODY ARMOR classified on ITAR as category X personal protective equipment including NIJ level IV or higher performance body armor plates.
BODY ARMOR classified on EAR as category 1A005 and 1A613 as body armor, including NIJ level Type IIA, II, IIIA, or III.
§ 120.62 U.S. person.

With any purchase from HighCom Armor you are confirming and stating that you are a legal adult (18 years or older) and are not a felon or have a Criminal Record. We do not promote nor condone the selling of body armor or protective products to minors or felons as this is illegal by federal law.
If for any reason law enforcement needs information regarding one of our purchasing parties we will share this information of that persons purchase in cooperation with requests from law enforcement.
If you are selling any items purchased here you are liable to distribution laws or any unlawful selling laws.

You do this at your own discretion and we are not liable for any consequences of these actions that you accrue upon yourself per your own actions.
With the purchase of any Body Armor you understand that body armor is not bullet proof but bullet resistant. NIJ standards are published to help insure that a bullet will be stopped per a specified level of protection. This does not mean that it will prevent 100% of bullet penetration or that the impact will not cause other injuries even if the bullet is stopped. Body Armor is good for protection but there needs to be an understanding if a bullet strikes you there is always a risk for injury or potentially death and even if the impact is absorbed by the vest or plate defeating the bullet before it penetrates a person’s body. Some of these injures seen can happen ranging from severe bruising, broken bones, and possibly serious internal injury that could result in death. If struck by a bullet even with the vest on you should seek immediate medical attention to insure there are no internal injuries prevalent at the time of the impact.
