The U.S. EAR( Export Administration Regulations) , witch is a regulation that appears in the 15 CFR § 730 et seq of the U.S. "Code of Federal Regulations" Chapter 15 Part 730 to Part 774 , Which is managed by the BIS (Department Of Commerce, Bureau Of Industry and Security) under the U.S. Department of Commerce. These regulations restrict the export of certain products to certain countries, and their scope does not only restrict exports from the United States directly. It also covers re-exports to mentioned countries that use US-made products as raw materials or components in the EAR restricted list.
Amendments to EAR regulations:
On April 29, 2020, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced three product export control regulations amendments to China, Russia and Venezuela, including: 1.Expansion of Military End Use / User Controls, MEU; 2. Removal of License Exception Civil End Users (CIV); 3. Elimination of License Exception Additional Permissive Reexports (APR) Provisions. The amendments to MEU and CIV have been finalized to be implemented on June 29, 2020, and the APR amendment is still under public review. It is expected that the finalization and resolution implementation time will be completed on June 29, 2020. This is the third time after the China-US tariffs and the Huawei ban. Second, the United States has adopted relevant restrictions on products exported to China.
The consequences of not complying with the EAR:
In order to avoid being included in the DPL of the USA (Denied Persons List Of The USA), which would have a huge negative impact on their business, Taiwanese companies should abide by the US EAR.
