The order will remain in effect for 180 days.
The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) of the U.S. Department of Commerce today released for publication in the Federal Register an order renewing the temporary denial of export privileges of a Russian airline.
Summary
As explained in today’s order [PDF 275 KB]:
- An order was issued in October 2022 denying export privileges of a Russian airline for a period of 180 days to prevent an imminent violation of the Export Administration Regulations (EAR).
- BIS—through the Office of Export Enforcement—in March 2023 submitted a written request for renewal of the temporary denial order. No opposition to the renewal of the temporary denial order was received.
- BIS presented evidence that “convincingly demonstrates” that the airline has acted in violation of the EAR and the temporary denial order; that such violations have been significant, deliberate and covert; and that there is a likelihood of imminent violations.
- Renewal of the temporary denial order is necessary to prevent imminent violation of the EAR and to give notice to companies and individuals in the United States and abroad that they should avoid dealing with the Russian airline in connection with export and reexport transactions involving items subject to the EAR and in connection with any other activity subject to the EAR.
The order is effective immediately and will remain in effect for 180 days.
