DD Form 2345. Militarily Critical Technical Data Agreement

DD Form 2345 is the Militarily Critical Technical Data Agreement form, used to request and grant access to militarily critical technical data (MCTD) for non-U.S. entities.

The form consists of sections where the requesting organization or individual provides information about their identity, the purpose of their request, the specific technical data they are seeking, and the proposed usage of that data. Additionally, the form contains sections for U.S. government approval and contact information.

Instructions guide the requester to provide detailed information about their organization, the specific technical data required, its intended use, and any relevant background or context. The form emphasizes that access to MCTD is subject to strict controls and regulations.

Application Example: An international defense contractor seeking to collaborate with U.S. entities on a joint project involving sensitive military technology might use DD Form 2345 to apply for access to the necessary technical data, ensuring compliance with export control regulations.

Additional documents such as company registration and supporting documentation may be required when submitting the form. An alternative form for exporting controlled technical data is the ITAR registration with the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC).
