BIS Completes Interagency Review for Rules to Revise License Exception, Fix Errors

The Bureau of Industry and Security last week completed rounds of interagency review for two rules, including one that could make changes to a license exception in the Export Administration Regulations.

That proposed rule, sent for interagency review Sept. 1 and completed Nov. 2, would revise license exception Additional Permissive Reexports, which allows certain reexports of controlled U.S. items from U.S. allies, including those listed under Country Group A:1 of the EAR (see 2309050013).

The other final rule, sent for interagency review Oct. 23 and completed Nov. 1, would correct inadvertent errors to two recent Federal Register notices, in what BIS said amounted to “merely technical corrections.”
