Complying with Trade Controls

Rogers Corporation is committed to conducting its business in compliance with all applicable trade regulations and restrictions that have been approved by recognized national and international authorities, including the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, China, and any country in which the company conducts business. We must not participate in any boycotts or trade restrictions that are not sanctioned by the U.S. government.

We must obtain any necessary licenses for the import and export of our products, technologies, services and technical data, as well as provide accurate, truthful information about our products to customs authorities.

What are trade restrictions?

Trade restrictions (including sanctions or embargoes) seek to prevent or limit trading with specific people or in specific countries. Trade is not limited to physical goods but can also apply to information and software. Boycotts involve a country refusing (for whatever reason) to do business, or prohibiting others from doing business, with one or more other countries.

What is expected of you?

• Comply with all relevant local trade compliance laws, regulations, and Company policies and procedures for import and export.
• If you are unclear about what trade restrictions apply, consult the Legal & Compliance Department to verify that any trade controls you are subject to have been met and you have all required approvals by authorities recognized by the Company.
• Report promptly to the Legal & Compliance Department all actions or requests that may be related to prohibited boycotts.
• Watch out for any “red flags” or suspicious behavior on the part of those with which we do business.
