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. asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES II.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

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.
