Export Control is a shared responsibility model between the government and exporters. The enforcement is for CBP, but in order for shipping companies to effectively perform their job (safely and securely ship packages in a timely manner), they assume some of the responsibility placed on the exporter. Total abdication of responsibility could result in CBP placing increased delays on FedEx packages as it ensures export control compliance. As noted in another post, the federal government does not mess around with regards to export control laws.
