The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) has updated the Entity List, a database of companies and individuals subject to strict export controls. Specifically, the agency is removing two physical addresses associated with Arrow Electronics (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd. from the list.

Why it matters: This is a largely administrative cleanup. The practical effect is that shipments to these two specific locations in Hong Kong are no longer flagged by the Entity List system. For most people, this changes nothing. For exporters who previously had to apply for special licenses to send items to these addresses, the regulatory hurdle is gone.

Who it affects

  • Exporters who previously required licenses to ship controlled items to the two removed Hong Kong addresses.

This rule was issued by the Commerce Department, Bureau of Industry and Security, and published in the Federal Register; readers should verify the specific address details in the original document before updating internal compliance databases.
