## Counterparty policy

Defence Trading works exclusively with governments and fully licensed defence enterprises. We do not engage with private individuals, unlicensed intermediaries, or entities operating outside applicable defence trade regulations. Every counterparty, without exception, must meet mandatory qualification criteria before any engagement proceeds. No exceptions. No discretionary waivers.

## Governments and state authorities

We supply governments, national armed forces, and state security agencies operating with full legal mandate and verified procurement authority. All government counterparties must provide official procurement documentation and verified end-user details. Each government counterparty is verified against national defence procurement mandates and international sanctions frameworks before any engagement proceeds.

- **Sovereign governments** — ministries of defence, state procurement agencies, and central government bodies with mandated authority to acquire military and defence equipment.
- **National armed forces** — Army, Navy, Air Force and Joint Forces commands operating under national defence authority with verified procurement mandates.
- **Law enforcement agencies** — state and federal law enforcement bodies authorised to procure defence-grade equipment under applicable national law.
- **Intelligence and security services** — government intelligence and internal security agencies operating under statutory authority with verified end-user documentation.
- **Government procurement bodies** — centralised acquisition agencies and defence procurement organisations.

## Compliance requirements

Engagement is conditional on end-user certification and export control clearance. See https://www.defencetrading.com/end-user-certification and https://www.defencetrading.com/export-control.
