Lists foreign parties whose bona fides the Bureau of Industry and Security has been unable to verify, typically because an end-use check such as a pre-license check or post-shipment verification could not be completed. Exports, reexports, and in-country transfers of items subject to the Export Administration Regulations to a listed party may not use license exceptions, and exporters must obtain a statement from the party before shipping items that do not require a license. Listing signals a red flag requiring additional due diligence rather than a finding of wrongdoing.
