Also, the Postal Service will disqualify a wholesaler, subsidiary, affiliate, agent, or company of the wholesaler as a GDE wholesaler for either of the following reasons: - Being an entity that is listed in the System of Award Management (SAM) Exclusions Extract, which is available at https://www.sam.gov/SAM/pages/public/searchRecords/search.jsf.

If the Postal Service discovers at any time, by whatever means, that a company that has qualified as a GDE wholesaler has not complied with any of the terms and conditions in IMM 620, the Postal Service’s International Integration Program manager will notify that company by e-mail that the company has not complied with the terms and conditions of the GDE Wholesaler Program and that the company will be stricken from the list of approved GDE wholesalers within 30 calendar days. A wholesaler who receives such notification may, within 7 days of receiving such notification, submit an appeal by e-mail to the Postal Service’s director of International Sales at globaldirect@usps.com. The appeal must list the reasons why the company should not be stricken from the list of approved GDE wholesalers. The decision of the Postal Service’s director of International Sales concerning the appeal is administratively final.
