BIS has developed a Small Business page at www.bis.doc.gov/smallbiz to provide an introduction to the requirements of the EAR. The webpage features a new BIS training video “Export Controls: A Quick Start Guide” that provides the basic information an exporter needs to know to comply with the EAR, in a concise and entertaining manner.
The page also offers a new mechanism to contact one of our regulatory counselors by email at smallbiz@bis.doc.gov. While anyone can submit their questions to us via this form, it is a direct and easy way for small companies, individuals, and those new-to-export controls to get assistance.
Online Training Room:
Brand new training videos are now available on the BIS Online Training Room, including “Export Controls: Classifying your Item,” and tips for utilizing the BIS’s online application and classification system, SNAP-R. Additional videos will be available in the coming months. If you have an idea for a BIS training video, please send your ideas to smallbiz@bis.doc.gov.
BIS Brochures:
BIS updated several introductory guides available in the Export Control Basics page:
• Introduction to the Commerce Department’s Export Controls
• How to Determine an Export Control Classification Number
• Frequently Asked Questions to Export Licensing Requirements
The material on these webpages should be helpful to all those who are new to the requirements of the EAR, and for those interested in a refresher. If you have customers who might benefit from this material (or friends and relatives who still don’t know what it is that you do), feel free to forward these resources along.
As always, we value your feedback on the initiative and any suggestions you may have for future improvements. Please send feedback and inquires to smallbiz@bis.doc.gov.
