BIS amending EAR to expand license requirements for military end users and uses

The Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is amending the Export Administration Regulations (EAR)(1). The rule will:

  • Expand the licensing requirements for China to now include “military end users”, in addition to those intended for “military end use”.

  • Broaden the items for which the licensing requirements and review policy apply.

  • Expand the definition of “military end use”.

  • Create a new reason for control and associated review policy for regional stability for certain items to China, Russia, or Venezuela; and

  • Add Electronic Export Information filing requirements in the Automated Export System (AES) for exports to China, Russia, and Venezuela.
