Order Denying Export Privileges
On January 27, 2020, in the U.S.
District Court for the Western District of
Washington, Hany Veletanlic
(‘‘Veletanlic’’) was convicted of

Frm 00008

Sfmt 4703
violating Section 38 of the Arms Export
Control Act (22 U.S.C 2778) (‘‘AECA’’).
Specifically, Veletanlic was convicted of
willfully exporting from the U.S. to
Sweden defense articles designated on
the United States Munitions List,
namely a Glock lower 23 receiver,
without having obtained from the
United States Department of State, a
license or written approval for the
export of the defense article. As a result
of his conviction, the Court sentenced
Veletanlic to 85 months of confinement,
three years of supervised release and a
$400 assessment.
Pursuant to Section 1760(e) of the
Export Control Reform Act (‘‘ECRA’’),
the export privileges of any person who
has been convicted of certain offenses,
including, but not limited to, Section 38
of the AECA, may be denied for a period
of up to ten (10) years from the date of
his/her conviction. See 50 U.S.C.
4819(e). In addition, any Bureau of
Industry and Security (‘‘BIS’’) licenses
or other authorizations issued under
ECRA, in which the person had an
interest at the time of the conviction,
may be revoked. Id.
BIS received notice of Veletanlic’s
conviction for violating Section 38 of
the AECA. BIS provided notice and
opportunity for Veletanlic to make a
written submission to BIS, as provided
in Section 766.25 of the Export
Administration Regulations (‘‘EAR’’ or
the ‘‘Regulations’’). 15 CFR 766.25.1 BIS
has not received and considered a
written submission from Veletanlic.
Based upon my review of the record
and consultations with BIS’s Office of
Exporter Services, including its
Director, and the facts available to BIS,
I have decided to deny Veletanlic’s
export privileges under the Regulations
for a period of 10 years from the date of
Veletanlic’s conviction. The Office of
Exporter Services has also decided to
revoke any BIS-issued licenses in which
Veletanlic had an interest at the time of
his conviction.2
Accordingly, it is hereby ordered:
First, from the date of this Order until
January 27, 2030, Hany Veletanlic, with
