Established on December 23, 2020, the Military End-User (MEU) List identifies foreign parties that are prohibited from receiving items described in Supplement No. 2 to part 744 of the EAR, unless the exporter secures a license. These parties have been determined by the U.S. Government to be ‘military end users,’ as defined in Section 744.21(g) of the EAR, and represent an unacceptable risk of use in or diversion to a ‘military end use’ or ‘military end user’ in Belarus, Burma, Cambodia, China, Russia, or Venezuela. The MEU List is not exhaustive, and exporters must conduct their own due diligence to identify any license requirements described in Section 744.21 of the EAR that may apply to entities not listed on the MEU List. The list supplemented existing BIS authorities that imposed licensing requirements on certain exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) for ‘military end-uses’ and ‘military end users,’ including BIS’s authority to inform the public of a license requirement for any item subject to the Regulations due to an unacceptable risk of use in or diversion to a 'military end use' or 'military end user' in Belarus, Burma, Cambodia, China, Russia, or Venezuela.
