The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) of the U.S. Department of Commerce today released a final rule amending the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by adding 26 entries to the entity list under the following destinations:

  • China
  • Egypt
  • Pakistan
  • United Arab Emirates (UAE)

The final rule also modifies one existing entry under the destination of China and removes two entities from the entity list: one entity listed under the destination of China, and a second entity listed under the destinations of Canada, India, Japan, Malaysia, Sweden and the UAE.

Background

The entity list identifies entities for which there is reasonable cause to believe that the entities have been involved, are involved, or pose a significant risk of being or becoming involved in activities contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States. The EAR impose additional license requirements on, and limit the availability of, most license exceptions for exports, reexports, and transfers (in-country) when a listed entity is a party to the transaction.
