BIS Seeking Comments on Information Collection Related to License Transfers

The Bureau of Industry and Security is seeking public comments on an information collection involving export licensees transferring an active export license to another party. In those scenarios, BIS said “there must be assurances that the other party, the transferee, will also be accountable for the proper use of the license.” The agency collects information from both parties to make sure shipments exported under the license won’t be diverted or “used for purposes contrary to the authorized use of the approved license.” Comments on the information collection are due Dec. 2.
