What are Pseudo Foreign Military Sales or PFMS?

Often, the United States military will sell surplus items, services, or training to foreign governments or international agencies. In most cases, these are simply Foreign Military Sales, but in some cases governments proceed with Pseudo Foreign Military Sales. Essentially, the difference between the two is in the way the finances are handled. With Foreign Military Sales (FMS), the US government directly sells an item or service to the buyer. Conversely, with Pseudo Foreign Military Sales, the US government provides the money to the buyer to purchase the item or service directly.

Problems that Come Up in Pseudo Foreign Military Sales

These transactions are not simple, and several problems can arise while both parties are attempting to complete the transaction. First, Pseudo Foreign Military Sales are subject to strict regulations, particularly in regards to compliance with arms control laws. Compliance is vital, but can be difficult to achieve.

Additionally, even when a Pseudo Foreign Military Sales is arranged, the buyer may not receive timely payment for their goods and services. A lack of payment must be addressed and resolved as quickly as possible.

I can’t recommend this firm enough. They have an outstanding team that truly care for their clients…I have been awarded a fair six figure settlement.

Nate M.

When I say “they went to bat” for me…this Law Firm literally did just that. They persevered to bring the hard-nosed Manufacturer to settle and provide me some recompense for everything I had to endure which led to this suit.
