Bureau of Industry and

ACTION: Notice.
SUMMARY: On June 14, 2002, the Bureau
of Industry and Security (‘‘BIS’’)
published a notice in the Federal
Register that set forth a list of persons
in foreign countries who were parties to
past export transactions where prelicense checks or post-shipment
verifications could not be conducted for
reasons outside the control of the U.S.
Government (‘‘Unverified List’’).
Additionally, on July 16, 2004, BIS
published a notice in the Federal
Register that advised exporters that the
Unverified List would also include
persons in foreign countries in
transactions where BIS is not able to
verify the existence or authenticity of
the end-user, intermediate consignee,
ultimate consignee, or other party to the
transaction. These notices advised
exporters that the involvement of a
listed person as a party to a proposed
transaction constitutes a ‘‘red flag’’ as
described in the guidance set forth in
PO 00000
Frm 00006
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Supplement No. 3 to 15 CFR part 732,
requiring heightened scrutiny by the
exporter before proceeding with such a
transaction. This notice adds one entity
to the Unverified List. The entity is:
Parrlab Technical Solutions, LTD, 1204,
12F Shanghai Industrial Building, 48–62
Hennesey Road, Wan Chai, Hong Kong
Special Administrative Region.
DATES:
This notice is effective April 26,
2005.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Thomas W. Andrukonis, Office of
Enforcement Analysis, Bureau of
Industry and Security, Telephone: (202)
482–4255.
In
administering export controls under the
Export Administration Regulations (15
CFR parts 730 to 774) (‘‘EAR’’), BIS
carries out a number of preventive
enforcement activities with respect to
individual export transactions. Such
activities are intended to assess
diversion risks, identify potential
violations, verify end-uses, and
determine the suitability of end-users to
receive U.S. commodities or technology.
In carrying out these activities, BIS
officials, or officials of other Federal
agencies acting on BIS’s behalf,
selectively conduct pre-licence checks
(‘‘PLCs’’) to verify the bona fides of the
transaction and the suitability of the
end-user or ultimate consignee. In
addition, such officials sometimes carry
out post-shipment verifications
(‘‘PSVs’’) to ensure that U.S. exports
have actually been delivered to the
authorized end-user, are being used in
a manner consistent with the terms of a
license or license exception, and are
otherwise consistent with the EAR.
In certain instances BIS officials, or
other Federal officials acting on BIS’s
behalf, have been unable to perform a
PLC or PSV with respect to certain
export control transactions for reasons
outside the control of the U.S.
Government (including a lack of
cooperation by the host government
authority, the end-user, or the ultimate
consignee). BIS listed a number of
foreign end-users and consignees
involved in such transactions in the
Unverified List that was included in
BIS’s Federal Register notice of June 14,
2002. See 67 FR 40910. On July 16,
2004, BIS published a notice in the
Federal Register that advised exporters
that the Unverified List would also
include persons in foreign countries
where BIS is not able to verify the
existence or authenticity of the end
user, intermediate consignee, ultimate
consignee, or other party to an export
transaction. See 69 FR 42652.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 79 / Tuesday, April 26, 2005 / Notices
The June 14, 2002, and July 16, 2004,
notices advised exporters that the
involvement of a listed person in a
transaction constituted a ‘‘red flag’’
under the ‘‘Know Your Customer’’
guidance set forth in Supplement No. 3
to 15 CFR part 732 of the EAR. Under
that guidance, whenever there is a ‘‘red
flag,’’ exporters have an affirmative duty
to inquire, verify, or otherwise
substantiate the proposed transaction to
satisfy themselves that the transaction
does not involve a proliferation activity
prohibited in 15 CFR part 744, and does
not violate other provisions of the EAR.
The Federal Register notices further
stated that BIS may periodically add
persons to the Unverified List based on
the criteria set forth above, and remove
persons when warranted.
This notice advises exporters that BIS
is adding Parrlab Technical Solutions,
LTD in the Hong Kong Special
Administrative Region to the Unverified
List. A ‘‘red flag’’ now exists for
transactions involving this entity due to
its inclusion on the Unverified List. As
a result, exporters have an affirmative
duty to inquire, verify, or otherwise
substantiate the proposed transaction to
satisfy themselves that the transaction
does not involve a proliferation activity
prohibited in 15 CFR part 744, and does
not violate other provisions of the EAR.
The Unverified List, as modified by
this notice, is set forth below.
