- The BIS Entity List (15 CFR Appendix Supplement No. 4 to Part 744), as defined in 15 CFR §744.16, contains the names of foreign parties subject to specific license requirements for the export, reexport, or in-country transfer of controlled items, ensuring sensitive technologies do not fall into the hands of those who would threaten U.S. national security or American citizens. Organizations or persons who violate these rules—as defined under EAR—are subject to criminal penalties and administrative sanctions. For more information, visit the BIS Entity List webpage.
