furnish information to the Department
of Commerce regarding offset
agreements exceeding $5,000,000 in
value associated with sales of weapon
systems or defense-related items to

compensation practices required as a
condition of purchase in either
government-to-government or
commercial sales of defense articles
and/or defense services as defined by
the Arms Export Control Act and the
International Traffic in Arms
Regulations. Such offsets are required

defense related items.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ADDRESSES:
I. Abstract
Over the years, BIS has worked with
other Government agencies and the
affected public to identify areas where
export licensing requirements may be
relaxed without jeopardizing U.S.
national security or foreign policy.
Many of these relaxations have taken
the form of licensing exceptions and
exclusions. Some of these license
exceptions and exclusions have a
reporting or recordkeeping requirement
to enable the Government to continue to
monitor exports of these items.
Exporters may choose to utilize the
license exception and accept the
reporting or recordkeeping burden in
lieu of submitting a license application.
These exceptions and exclusions have
resulted in a large reduction of licensing
burden in OMB Control No. 0694–0088
and allow exporters to ship items
quickly, without having to wait for
license approval. This has also created
ten small collections involving these
license exceptions and exclusions.
These collections are designed to
reduce export licensing burden. It is up
to the individual company to decide
whether it is most advantageous to
continue to submit license applications
or to comply with the reporting or
recordkeeping requirements and take
advantage of the licensing exception or
exclusion.
