Companies and individuals penalized for breaking U.S. export control rules, such as illegal exports, reexports, or transfers of restricted items.
This dataset covers enforcement actions taken by the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) against companies and individuals that violated U.S. export control laws.
These cases often involve shipping restricted technology without authorization, ignoring trade restrictions, or violating antiboycott rules. The dataset serves as a public record of BIS enforcement outcomes.
