#1b Key: Obtain Guidance for Government International Professionals

A close international dealer is a company outside the USA that has made a "significant purchase" for small-sized items or technological information and/or makes "contain-load" purchases for large-sized items. The LCL (Less-Than-Container) dealers can me placed in the "significant" or "container-load" dealer classifications. These two classifications determine if the dealer receives a visit or regular phone calls.
