Export of Thermal Imaging Equipment or related accessories (such as manuals) is strictly regulated by the US Department of State in accordance with the guidelines of the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). It is a major crime to ship or carry US manufactured thermal imaging devices outside the borders of the United States, punishable by fines and prison sentences. Ignorance of these regulations will not hold up in court. By purchasing thermal imaging equipment from TNVC, you attest that you will not attempt to export or carry this thermal imaging equipment outside the borders of the United States. Also, it is illegal to allow a non-US Citizen to look through US Thermal Imaging Equipment, even on US soil. They are also not allowed any access whatsoever, including manuals and documentation pertaining to a US-made Thermal Imaging Device. Again, this is a crime punishable by fines and prison sentences.
