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 32 entities to the Entity List. These entries are listed on the Entity List under the destination of China, India, Iran, Singapore, Taiwan, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
The final rule, effective September 12, 2025, also revises an entry by removing two addresses from one entity under the destination of Russia. Finally, this rule amends 27 existing entries on the Entity List to correct typographical errors.
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.
