The Severe Consequences of Federal Drug Importation or Exportation Crimes

Drug importation or exportation charges are federal offenses that can lead to years of imprisonment, regardless of your role in the operation.

Our knowledgeable defense attorneys at Spodek Law Group, including Attorney Todd Spodek, understand the gravity of these charges and are ready to help you mount a compelling defense in your federal drug importation or exportation case.

Understanding Federal Drug Importation and Exportation Laws

The Controlled Substances Import and Export Act is a federal law that makes it a crime to bring controlled substances into or out of the country without proper licenses and permissions from the U.S. Attorney General. Controlled substances are categorized into five different schedules based on their accepted medical use and potential for abuse or dependence. It is important to understand the scope of federal drug importation and exportation laws and how they can apply to you.

Federal Drug Importation or Exportation vs. Drug Trafficking

Drug importation or exportation and drug trafficking are similar crimes, but drug importation or exportation specifically involves the act of bringing an illegal drug or controlled substance into or out of the United States, while drug trafficking covers a wider range of actions related to controlled substances.

Punishment for Unlawful Drug Importation or Exportation

Illegally importing or exporting drugs is a federal offense that can result in mandatory minimum sentencing requirements. The severity of the sentence depends on factors such as the type and amount of drugs, the defendant’s criminal record, and whether a firearm was used in the crime. At Spodek Law Group, our experienced attorneys are familiar with federal drug laws and can help defend you against drug importation or exportation charges in federal court.

Defense Strategies for Illegal Drug Importation Charges

There are strategic ways to fight drug importation or exportation charges. For instance, if you weren’t aware of the drugs, thought the substance could be lawfully imported, or didn’t know the controlled substance would enter the country, you may be able to successfully defend yourself against these charges. Our attorneys at Spodek Law Group can use these and other defense strategies to help defend you in federal court.
