The Entity List specifies foreign persons, entities, and governments subject to specific license requirements for the export, reexport, and/or transfer (in-country) of specified items. These entities are involved in activities contrary to U.S. national security or foreign policy interests. For procurement and supply chain professionals, understanding the Entity List is critical for compliance with export regulations and managing risks associated with restricted parties. It helps prevent unauthorized access to sensitive technologies and supports responsible export practices.
