Trade Compliance Talks - Silas Wiater

  • Summary

  • Silas and Anders discuss the Export Control Reform (ECR) and its impact on export regulations, particularly the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). They highlight the following key points: The purpose of ITAR before the 2014 reform was to control everything related to defense articles. The ECR aimed to make exporting items easier, particularly commercial off-the-shelf items, while focusing ITAR on more critical military applications. There were challenges in classifying items correctly and dealing with the transition between ITAR and EAR. The export control reform was motivated by increasing efficiency, reducing regulatory burdens, and aligning export controls with technological advancements. There were instances of over-classification and sometimes incorrect classification due to misunderstandings. Companies had to adapt to the changes, which required staying informed and collaborating with various teams. Disclosures to regulatory authorities were necessary when mistakes were made in classifications or exports. Overall, this episode discussion provides insights into the challenges and changes brought about by the ECR and its impact on businesses dealing with export regulations.
