All visitors are required to complete the registration form. Though this form is available to fill out at our headquarters, you can save time at your visit by pre-registering via the link below.

Foreign Visitor Information

These guidelines are provided to make your visit to Legacy Industries both productive and pleasant. We also want to ensure we provide a safe and secure environment for you and your information as well as for our people, property, and information. Please assist us in this effort by complying with our security requirements.

General Principle

All visitors to our facilities will be screened and required to sign an agreement to maintain compliance with the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and export regulations that are administered by the State Department’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC). To maintain compliance, we must ensure that controlled technologies or technical data are not inadvertently released to foreign nationals.

What is Export-Controlled Technology or Technical Data?

Technology is “Released” When:

Visitors refers to any non-Legacy employee. Common examples include visiting company representatives, students, researchers, or members of the media.

Will Visitors Include Non-U.S. Citizens?

All visitors will be asked to indicate their citizenship before being allowed access to our facilities. This will determine eligibility to participate in tours and other restricted activities. All visitors will be provided color-coded visitor tags so that it’s more readily apparent who cannot attend restricted areas or activities.

ESCORTS

The person in charge of your visit will ensure that non-US visitors are escorted when visiting our facilities and are not given keys/keycards, combinations, passwords, or other access to facilities in which export-controlled work is being performed.

RESTRICTIONS ON INVOLVEMENT

It may be necessary to restrict non-US visitors from participating in particular activities that would expose them to export-controlled technology or technical data. Please keep in mind that many production areas are export-controlled areas, meaning that non-US visitors may not be able to participate in a full tour of the entire facility.

Visitor Policy

Purpose

To provide a safe and secure environment for employees, visitors and property and to ensure that only authorized personnel have access to the Company facilities. Every visitor must obtain an identification badge and visibly display and wear the badge while on property.

Policy Statement

Signing In and Out: Legacy Industries is an ITAR Government regulated company and requires all visitors to sign in and out of our facilities. In addition, you must list your citizenship when signing in. If you are NOT a U.S. person special arrangement must be made before you can enter our facility so you must notify the receptionist. There is a visitor registration book in the front lobby/reception area and also in shipping & receiving. Once you sign in you will receive a visitor’s badge which must be on you and visible at all times. Another essential reason for following this process is that we utilize the visitor registration book during an emergency that requires evacuation of the building.
