This full-day program will offer a comprehensive look at how to comply with the U.S. export and reexport controls relating to technology, software and encryption. The morning portion will focus on the regulatory requirements relating to technology and software, including what is considered an export or reexport of technology or software; what technology and software is subject to the Export Administration Regulations; how to determine the Export Control Classification Number; what license exceptions are available; and the unique application requirements of technology and software. BIS technical and policy specialists will also discuss important export control issues that may arise in the employment of foreign nationals and for foreign items incorporating, or produced from, controlled U.S.-origin software and technology.
The afternoon will focus on the latest developments in encryption controls and the unique provisions related to encryption under the EAR. BIS encryption specialists will cover a variety of topics, including the December 9, 2004 revisions to encryption export and reexport controls; how the provision for >64-bit "mass market" encryption may apply to products that you use, sell or buy; license exception provisions for encryption source code (open source and proprietary); provisions for U.S. subsidiaries, the European Union's "license-free zone", and for U.S.-origin encryption parts and components incorporated into foreign products; encryption notification and reporting requirements; and other encryption technology issues.
The instructors are experienced export policy specialists from BIS's Washington, D.C. headquarters, as well as representatives from other U.S. government agencies as appropriate.
