BIS Adds 2 Entities to Entity List, Removes One

The Bureau of Industry and Security added two entities to the Entity List for trying to illegally acquire U.S. items or for being involved in other activities that are “contrary” to U.S. national security and foreign policy, the agency said Feb. 26. The entities are China-based Chengdu Beizhan Electronics and Sandvine Incorporated, which has locations in multiple countries. Effective Feb. 27, the companies are subject to license requirements for all items subject to the Export Administration Regulations, and licenses will be reviewed under a presumption of denial.

BIS also removed one UAE-based Jazirah Aviation Club from the list and modified entries for two existing entities in China to add alias and address information.
