| 2015-12267 | Russian Sanctions: Revisions and Clarifications for Licensing Policy for the Crimea Region of Ukraine | Rule | The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) issues this final rule to amend the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to facilitate Internet-based communications with persons in the Crimea region of Ukraine. This final rule allows exports or reexports without a license to the Crimea region of Ukraine of software that is necessary to enable the exchange of personal communications over the Internet, provided that such software is designated EAR99, or is classified as mass market software under Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) 5D992.c of the EAR, and provided further that such software is widely available to the public at no cost to the user. This final rule is being published simultaneously with the Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) issuance of General License No. 9, which authorizes the export or reexport from the United States or by U.S. persons to the Crimea region of Ukraine of certain services and software incident to the exchange of personal communications over the Internet. This action is consistent with the U.S. Government's policy to promote personal communications between the people in Crimea and the outside world. Lastly, this final rule makes clarifications to the EAR with respect to the addition of the Crimea region of Ukraine provisions in a final rule published on January, 29, 2015, to the EAR. These clarifications are in response to requests that BIS received for guidance on applying these provisions. | 2015-05-22 | 2015 | 5 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2015/05/22/2015-12267/russian-sanctions-revisions-and-clarifications-for-licensing-policy-for-the-crimea-region-of-ukraine | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2015-05-22/pdf/2015-12267.pdf | Commerce Department; Industry and Security Bureau | 54,241 | The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) issues this final rule to amend the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to facilitate Internet-based communications with persons in the Crimea region of Ukraine.
