BIS added 57 entities and removed 127
The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) of the U.S. Department of Commerce today released its first quarterly update of the “boycott requester list,” which identifies entities that have made boycott-related requests.
The updated list, aimed at helping U.S. persons comply with antiboycott regulations, added 57 entities and removed 127. The update aims to help U.S. companies in identifying and reporting such requests, encouraging foreign companies to reconsider their support of boycotts.
Entities are listed based on reports to BIS, and U.S. persons are advised to review transaction documents for boycott-related language.
