FTSR Letter No. 164 To: U.S. Customs Service Headquarters, U.S. Customs District Offices, Department of Commerce District Offices, Freight Forwarders, Exporters, Exporting Carriers, and Other concerned. From: Bureau of the Census Subject: Valuation of Technical Data (Software)
The term software is intended to cover both "general use" and "customized" software. The term "general use" covers software products for general sales that are publicly available to any user over the counter, by mail order or by telephone. These products are designed for installation by the user and require minimal support from the vender. "General Use" software is to be treated as a commodity and the value reported on the SED should represent the full selling price of the software. We are maintaining the SED requirements for customized technical data (software that does not conform to the general use definition outlined above) based on the value of the media, the destination, and/or requirements of the Export Administration Regulations (EAR-15 CFR, Part 768-799) and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR-22 CFR, Parts 121-130.)
