DDTC notes that in order for filers to ensure that they have the latest copy of the Forms and Batch schemas, they may download them from the D-Trade2 Web site at https://dt2.pmddtc.state.gov/dtrade/CertificateLogin.
(DDTC previously stated that beginning on May 16, 2009, the D-Trade2 application must be used to submit all new license submissions; however, D-Trade1 would be available to track status and to attach amplifying data to pre-existing cases as required, and DDTC would continue to process any cases submitted via the D-Trade1 application prior to May 16, 2009 until the review of the case was completed.
