A Question for US Bankers

In the US, $10,000 CASH, as well as $3000 to $9999 cash spent on cashier’s checks etc. And you don’t need to answer questions about the purpose or source of the funds, just your personal identifying info, and things like occupation etc. These are routine and filed all the time. If the bank officer thinks you’re shady (e.g. $9000 transactions every day in order to avoid this requirement), then they will file a Suspicious Activity Report, which can get you into trouble.

Actually, I looked up the Export Control Classification Number and it appears you cannot export those items to Sudan or Syria.

If you look up the ECCN, cross reference it to the AT1 tier countries, those are the only two that pop. It appears to be perfectly legal to send an iPad to UAE, however.

And? They are embargoed countries. As clearly indicated on the very bloody page I cited.

Well, yes, of course it is perfectly legal. Jaysus. That was the whole bloody point of the cite.

Here’s a cite:

The picture they paint is very similar to what the OP has asked about.

How many iPads can you buy with the OP’s $12,000? :rolleyes:

15 units x $747.93 = $11,218.95/ Leaves almost $800 for shipping.
My friend has a large family, he wants to surprise everyone and hand them out as gifts (siblings, children, parents, etc)

Over here we refer to this as "Keeping up with the Joneses’.
Over there it’s "Keeping up with the Muhammeds’
:stuck_out_tongue:

Whoa, cool down, buddy. I didn’t scroll down to the bottom of the page. I just looked up the ECCN. I’m so sorry if I offended you.
