U.S. revisions to “unverified list”
Foreign persons who are or have been parties to a transaction involving the export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) of items subject to the EAR
Parties to a transaction involving the export of items subject to the EAR
The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) of the U.S. Commerce Department today released for publication in the Federal Register a final rule amending the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by adding 32 persons to the unverified list (UVL).
The persons are listed under the following designations:
- Bulgaria
- Canada
- China (14)
- Germany (2)
- Indonesia
- Israel
- Malaysia
- Saudi Arabia
- Singapore
- Turkey (4)
- United Arab Emirates (5)
The final rule [PDF 265 KB] will be effective upon publication in the Federal Register (scheduled to be March 24, 2023).
Background
The UVL contains the names and addresses of foreign persons who are or have been parties to a transaction involving the export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) of items subject to the EAR. These foreign persons are added to the UVL because BIS or federal officials acting on BIS’s behalf were unable to verify their bona fides (i.e., legitimacy and reliability relating to the end use and end user of items subject to the EAR) through the completion of an end-use check.
