Additions to the Entity List 

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and 

Security, Department of Commerce. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: In this rule, the Bureau of 

Industry and Security (BIS) amends the 

Export Administration Regulations 

(EAR) by adding 16 entities to the Entity 

List, under the destinations of China, 

People’s Republic of (China) (14) and 

Singapore (2). These entities have been 

determined by the U.S. Government to 

be acting contrary to the national 

security or foreign policy interests of the 

United States. 

DATES: This rule is effective January 16, 

2025. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Chair, End-User Review Committee, 

Office of the Assistant Secretary for 

Export Administration, Bureau of 

Industry and Security, Department of 

Commerce, Phone: (202) 482–5991, 

Email: ERC@bis.doc.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The Entity List (supplement no. 4 to 

part 744 of the EAR (15 CFR parts 730– 

774)) identifies entities for which there 

is reasonable cause to believe, based on 

specific and articulable facts, that the 

entities have been involved, are 

involved, or pose a significant risk of 

being or becoming involved in, 

activities contrary to the national 

security or foreign policy interests of the 

United States, pursuant to § 744.11(b). 

The EAR imposes additional license 

requirements on, and limits the 

availability of, most license exceptions 

for exports, reexports, and transfers (incountry) when a listed entity is a party 

to the transaction. The license review 

policy for each listing is identified in 

the ‘‘License Review Policy’’ column on 

the Entity List, and the impact on the 

availability of license exceptions is 

described in the relevant Federal 

Register document that added the 

listing to the Entity List. BIS amends the 

Entity List pursuant to parts 744 

(Control Policy: End-User and End-Use 

Based) and 746 (Embargoes and Other 

Special Controls) of the EAR. 

The End-User Review Committee 

(ERC), composed of representatives of 

the Departments of Commerce (Chair), 

State, Defense, Energy and, where 

appropriate, the Treasury, makes all 

decisions regarding additions to, 

removals from, or other modifications to 

the Entity List. The ERC makes all 

decisions to add an entry to the Entity 

List by majority vote and makes all 

decisions to remove or modify an entry 

by unanimous vote. 

Entity List Decisions 

Additions to the Entity List 

The ERC approved the addition of 

Chengdu Suanfeng Technology Co., 

Ltd.; Fujian Sophon Technology Co., 

Ltd.; Fujian Suanxin Technology Co., 

Ltd.; Jiangsu Suanxin Technology Co., 

Ltd.; Qingdao Sophgo Technology Co., 

Ltd.; Quliang Electronics Co., Ltd.; 

Shanghai Suanhu Technology Co., Ltd.; 

Sophgo Technologies Ltd.; Sophon 

Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd.; Suanli 

(Fujian) Technology Co., Ltd.; Tianjin 

Shunhua Technology Co., Ltd.; Wuhan 

Sophgo Technology Co., Ltd.; Wuxi 

Sophgo Technology Co., Ltd.; and 

Xiamen Sophgo Technologies Limited 

under the destination of China; and 

Sophgo Technologies Pte. Ltd. and 

PowerAir Pte. Ltd. under the destination 

of Singapore to the Entity List. These 

entities are being added to the Entity 

List due to their involvement in 

supporting or directly contributing to 

the development of advanced 

computing integrated circuits (ICs) that 

further China’s development of 

advanced weapons systems, weapons of 

mass destruction, and high-tech 

surveillance applications, and because 

these entities supply Chinese public 

security end users and pose a risk of 

diversion to Huawei, an entity on the 

Entity List. This activity is contrary to 

the national security and foreign policy 

interests of the United States under 

§ 744.11 of the EAR. These entities will 

be added to the Entity List with a 

footnote 4 designation for their role in 

supporting or directly contributing to 

the development of advanced 

computing ICs that further China’s 

development of advanced weapons 

systems, weapons of mass destruction, 

and high-tech surveillance applications. 

For all of these entities, BIS imposes a 

license requirement for all items subject 

to the EAR, and a license review policy 

of a presumption of denial. The footnote 

4 designation means that ‘‘items subject 

to the EAR,’’ for the purpose of the 

license requirements for these entries, 

includes foreign-produced items that are 

subject to the EAR pursuant to 

§ 734.9(e)(2) of the EAR. 

For the reasons described above, this 

final rule adds the following 16 entities, 

including aliases where appropriate, to 

the Entity List: 

China 

• Chengdu Suanze Technology Co., 

Ltd., 

• Fujian Sophon Technology Co., 

Ltd., 

• Fujian Suanxin Technology Co., 

Ltd., 

• Jiangsu Suanxin Technology Co., 

Ltd., 

• Qingdao Sophgo Technology Co., 

Ltd., 

• Quliang Electronics Co., Ltd., 

• Shanghai Suanhu Technology Co., 

Ltd., 

• Sophgo Technologies Ltd., 

• Sophon Technology (Beijing) Co., 

Ltd., 

• Suanli (Fujian) Technology Co., 

Ltd., 

• Tianjin Shunhua Technology Co., 

Ltd., 

• Wuhan Suanneng Technology Co., 

Ltd., 

• Wuxi Suanneng Technology Co., 

Ltd., and 

• Xiamen Sophgo Technologies 

Limited. 

Singapore 

• Sophgo Technologies Pte. Ltd., and 

• PowerAir Pte. Ltd. 

Savings Clause 

For the changes being made in this 

final rule, shipments of items removed 

from eligibility for a License Exception 

or export, reexport, or transfer (incountry) without a license (NLR) as a 

result of this regulatory action that were 

en route aboard a carrier to a port of 

export, reexport, or transfer (in-country), 

on January 16, 2025, pursuant to actual 

orders for export, reexport, or transfer 

(in-country) to or within a foreign 

destination, may proceed to that 

destination under the previous 

eligibility for a License Exception or 

export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) 

without a license (NLR) before February 

18, 2025. Any such items not actually 

exported, reexported or transferred (incountry) before midnight, on February 

18, 2025, require a license in accordance 

with this final rule. 

Export Control Reform Act of 2018 

On August 13, 2018, the President 

signed into law the John S. McCain 

National Defense Authorization Act for 

Fiscal Year 2019, which included the 

Export Control Reform Act of 2018 

(ECRA) (50 U.S.C. 4801–4852). ECRA 

provides the legal basis for BIS’s 

principal authorities and serves as the 

authority under which BIS issues this 

rule. In particular, Section 1753 of 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with RULES1
4622 Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 10 / Thursday, January 16, 2025 / Rules and Regulations 

ECRA (50 U.S.C. 4812) authorizes the 

regulation of exports, reexports, and 

transfers (in-country) of items subject to 

U.S. jurisdiction. Further, Section 

1754(a)(1)–(16) of ECRA (50 U.S.C. 

4813(a)(1)–(16)) authorizes, inter alia, 

establishing and maintaining a list of 

foreign persons and end-uses that are 

determined to be a threat to the national 

security and foreign policy of the United 

States pursuant to the policy set forth in 

Section 1752(2)(A), and restricting 

exports, reexports, and in-country 

transfers of any controlled items to any 

foreign person or end-use so listed; 

apprising the public of changes in 

policy, regulations, and procedures, and 

any other action necessary to carry out 

ECRA that is not otherwise prohibited 

by law. Pursuant to Section 1762(a) of 

ECRA (50 U.S.C. 4821(a)), these changes 

can be imposed in a final rule without 

prior notice and comment. 

Rulemaking Requirements 

1. This rule has been determined to be 

not significant for purposes of Executive 

Order 12866. 

2. Notwithstanding any other 

provision of law, no person is required 

to respond to or be subject to a penalty 

for failure to comply with a collection 

of information, subject to the 

requirements of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 

3501 et seq.), unless that collection of 

information displays a currently valid 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) Control Number. This regulation 

involves an information collection 

approved by OMB under control 

number 0694–0088, Simplified Network 

Application Processing System. BIS 

does not anticipate a change to the 

burden hours associated with this 

collection as a result of this rule. 

Information regarding the collection, 

including all supporting materials, can 

be accessed at: https://www.reginfo.gov/ 

public/do/PRAMain. 

3. This rule does not contain policies 

with federalism implications as that 

term is defined in Executive Order 

13132. 

4. Pursuant to Section 1762 of ECRA 

(50 U.S.C. 4821), this action is exempt 

from the Administrative Procedure Act 

(APA) (5 U.S.C. 553) requirements for 

notice of proposed rulemaking, 

opportunity for public participation, 

and delay in effective date. While 

Section 1762 of ECRA provides 

sufficient authority for such an 

exemption, this action is also 

independently exempt from these APA 

requirements because it involves a 

military or foreign affairs function of the 

United States (5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1)). 

5. Because a notice of proposed 

rulemaking and an opportunity for 

public comment are not required to be 

given for this rule by 5 U.S.C. 553, or 

by any other law, the analytical 

requirements of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) are 

not applicable. Accordingly, no 

regulatory flexibility analysis is 

required, and none has been prepared.

[Docket No. 250107–0003] 

RIN 0605–AA51 

Securing the Information and 

Communications Technology and 

Services Supply Chain; Corrections 

AGENCY: U.S. Department of Commerce. 

ACTION: Final rule; correction. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

is correcting a final rule that appeared 

in the Federal Register on December 6, 

2024. This final rule revises the 

regulations on the Department of 

Commerce’s review of transactions 

involving information and 

communications technology and 

services designed, developed, 

manufactured, or supplied by persons 

owned by, controlled by, or subject to 

the jurisdiction or direction of a foreign 

adversary that may pose undue or 

unacceptable risk to the United States or 

U.S. persons. That rule inadvertently 

omitted instructions to update certain 

regulatory language included in the 

rule. This document corrects the 

omissions in the December 6, 2024 rule. 

DATES: Effective February 4, 2025. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Rachel O’Meara, U.S. Department of 

Commerce, Telephone: (202) 482–4124, 

email: ICTsupplychain@doc.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

December 6, 2024, the Department of 

Commerce (Department) published in 

the Federal Register a final rule, 

‘‘Securing the Information and 

Communications Technology and 

Services Supply Chain’’ (89 FR 96872). 

This final rule revised the regulations at 

15 CFR part 791 on the Department’s 

review of transactions involving 

information and communications 

technology and services (ICTS) 

designed, developed, manufactured, or 

supplied by persons owned by, 

controlled by, or subject to the 

jurisdiction or direction of a foreign 

adversary that may pose undue or 

unacceptable risk to the United States or 

U.S. persons. The revisions to 15 CFR 

part 791 inadvertently omitted 

instructions to update certain regulatory 

language included in the final rule. This 

document corrects the omissions 

inadvertently published in the Federal 

Register on December 6, 2024, 

specifically the omission of instructions 

to update certain paragraphs of §§ 791.3 

and 791.100. While the related 

regulatory text was included in the final 

rule, the final rule unintentionally 

omitted the instructions to update 

introductory text for paragraph (a) in 

§ 791.3 and to add paragraph (a)(9) to 

§ 791.100. This document corrects the 

inadvertent omissions introduced by the 

December 6, 2024, final rule by 

instructing the Code of Federal 

Regulations to update introductory text 

for paragraph (a) in § 791.3 and to add 

paragraph (a)(9) to § 791.100. 

Federal Register Correction 

In FR Doc. 2024–28335, appearing on 

page 96872 in the Federal Register of 

Friday, December 6, 2024, the following 

corrections are made: 

§ 791.3 [Corrected] 

■ 1. On page 96893, in the first column, 

in part 791, instruction 6 amending 

§ 791.3 is corrected to read as follows: 

■ 6. Amend § 791.3 by revising 

paragraphs (a) introductory text, (a)(2) 

and (4), and (b) and removing paragraph 

(c). 

The revisions read as follows: 

§ 791.100 [Corrected] 

■ 2. On page 96893, in the third column, 

in part 791, instruction 8 amending 

§ 791.100 is corrected to read as follows: 

■ 8. Amend § 791.100 by: 

■ a. Revising paragraphs (a) 

introductory text and (a)(6) through (8); 

■ b. Adding paragraph (a)(9); and 

■ c. Revising paragraphs (c) 

introductory text, (d) introductory text, 

(d)(5), and (e). 

The revisions and addition read as 

follows:
