What's EAR?

EAR is one of the US export regulations, which comes under the charge of the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS).  EAR regulates not only export from the US but also reexport from countries other than the US.  Violators have to pay penalty even though they are not the US residents.

Items subject to the EAR

  • US-origins in the US and other countries
  • Foreign products which incorporate US-origins more than "de minimus level"
  • Direct products
