There is no such animal under US law. Note however (1) you need export permission to re-export the import, just as if it was produced here; (2) the company may have legitimate fears that it may have liability and/or bad PR with the feds under either US or Belgian law if you attempt a re-export; (3) For all I know, Belgian law may require some US paper showing what you will do with the stuff before they are allowed to export it.
