Bureau of Industry and Security December 2005 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

In a Federal Register Notice published on October 31, 2005, (Federal Register, Vol. 70, No. 209, page 62295), the Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security published a notice entitled ``Revision to the Unverified ListGuidance as to `Red Flags' ''. This notice inadvertently included a misspelling of the name of one Entity: ``Elaton Company'' should have been spelled ``Etalon Company''. This Notice advises exporters that the correct information for this Entity is: Etalon Company, 20B Berezhkovskaya Naberezhnaya, Moscow, Russia.

The Bureau of Industry and Security is removing the requirement to obtain an Import Certificate in support of an export or reexport license when the ultimate consignee or purchaser is a foreign government or agency of Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, and India. The requirement is being removed for Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania, and Slovakia because of their membership in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and their commitment to export controls, as is reflected by their membership in multiple export control regimes, such as the Wassenaar Arrangement, the Australia Group, the Missile Technology Control Regime, and Nuclear Suppliers Group. This requirement is being removed for India because of the actions it has taken under the U.S.- India Next Steps in Strategic Partnership.
