Next Question:

Are you shipping or transferring items(2) on the Commerce Control List (CCL)(1) of the Export Administration Regulations (EAR)? 

YES  NO


Note (1)

The Commerce Control List (CCL) is maintained by the Bureau of Industry and Security (part of the US Department of Commerce) as part of the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). This list is sometimes called the "dual use" list, as the items on it may have either a military or commercial application. 

Note (2)

Items on the Commerce Control List are generally designated by categories represented by the letters "A", "B", and "C" following the initial digit in an Export Control Commodity Number (ECCN). Examples are ECCNs such as 4A994, 5B001, and 1C351.

  • "A" category = Systems, Equipment and Components
  • "B" category = Test, Inspection and Production Equipment
  • "C" category = Materials
(See an overview of the CCL's structure.)
