Foreign Order Policy / Exporting
Lilja Precision Rifle Barrels, Inc. is a registered exporter with
the U.S. State Department.
All overseas orders must be accompanied by a 50% deposit (in U.S.
funds, drawn on a U.S. bank) or a credit card number. We prefer
a credit card because the card company handles the exchange rates.
NOTE: As of January 2009 we have had to increase our fee for
processing foreign orders from $75 to $350. The State Department
enacted a retroactive fee of $250 per application
for the year of 2008 and for all new applications plus increased
the annual registration fee to $2750. They also lacked the courtesy
to inform of us this retroactive fee until our 2009 renewal notice
came although the change took place in September of 2008.
A charge of $350 will be added to each foreign order license. This
charge covers the processing of export paperwork and the registration
fees with the State Department. An order can be for a single barrel
or for hundreds, one $350 charge applies per application. For example,
if a foreign business applies for multiple barrels we can deliver
barrels individually on that license until it expires (usually 2
years) and the total number of barrels on the license does not have
to be filled. See the link below for additional
information on Canadian exporting. We understand through a phone
conversation in 2004 with a State Department official that they
are not approving export licenses for any .50 caliber barrels.
To process the application for export the U.S. State Department
requires the following:
- An original document or certified copy of a duly-issued import
authorization.
- A written explanation is required for any application that does
not include an import authorization (e.g., letter from importing
government stating that the item does not require an import certificate;
applicant certification that no import permit is required).
- A Purchase Order written on the buyer's letterhead. The State
Department is no longer accepting P.O.'s written on our order
form. The P.O. should include a statement-of-use such as: "To
be used for hunting or sporting purposes.".
- The end-user must complete and return a State Department DSP-83
form. To download a copy of a printable blank form in a .pdf file

- English translations must be provided for foreign language documents.
We prefer to ship barrels through the U.S. Postal Service. United
Parcel Service and FedEx will not accept firearms or parts for foreign
delivery.
