Because of this classification, certain technologies, equipment, materials, and information are prohibited from export without a license. If you are planning to export technologies, equipment, materials, or information to any of these countries, they need to be evaluated to determine if a license is required. The list includes countries that have had full or partial embargoes applied. If you are planning to export technologies, equipment, materials, or information to any of these countries, they need to be evaluated to determine if an export will be allowed.
