I have never encountered this as a requisite. When I sold my speakers to Paul in Hong Kong, I sold them as an individual. Perhaps since they were picked up at my company, this was not an issue as they work with my company for our business shipping of specific items to certain locations.
So you may be 100% correct, but it would seem easy enough to just book the shipment through your employer/company if necessary.
