In addition, Section 1503 of the Emergency Wartime Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2003 (Pub. L. 108-11), authorized the President to make inapplicable, with respect to Iraq, Section 620A of the Foreign Assistance Act and any other provision of law applicable to countries that have supported terrorism. On May 7, 2003, the President exercised this authority by the issuance of Presidential Determination 2003-23, which, among other things, suspended the application of the provisions of the Iraq Sanctions Act of 1990 (101), except section 586E (relating to penalties). In particular, the President's action suspended the requirement in section 586G(a)(3) of the Iraq Sanctions Act that items controlled under sections 5 and 6 of the Export Administration Act (50 U.S.C. App. 2401 et seq.) (EAA) be prohibited for export to Iraq and made inapplicable with respect to Iraq section 620A of the Foreign Assistance Act and any other provision of law that applies to countries that have supported terrorism.
License Requirements for Exports and Reexports to Iraq and Certain Transfers Within Iraq Back to Top
This rule is designed to address two significant foreign policy goals with respect to Iraq. In particular, this rule furthers the goal of ensuring that exports and reexports of controlled items destined to civil infrastructure rebuilding do not suffer undue licensing delays. At the same time, in furtherance of applicable UNSC Resolutions and U.S. foreign policy interests, this rule revises section 746.3 of the Export Administration Regulations (15 CFR parts 730-799) (EAR) and retains substantial restrictions on exports to Iraq destined for inappropriate end-users or end-uses. In addition, this rule addresses certain transactions involving the transfer of items subject to the EAR within Iraq.
Licensing Policy Back to Top
NP-controlled exports and reexports to Iraq, and transfers within Iraq, will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Unless the export, reexport, or transfer is determined to contribute to the building of Iraqi civil non-nuclear infrastructure, there will be a general policy of denial for subsystems or components or any nuclear weapons research, development, support, or manufacturing facilities. Reason for Control: National Security (NS)
Special License(s): Special Iraq Reconstruction License (SIRL) Back to Top
Items licensed by OFAC and subsequently returned from Iraq to the United States do not require further authorization from BIS. However, persons returning items to the United States that were previously exported or reexported to Iraq under a specific license granted by OFAC will be subject to a recordkeeping requirement set forth in revised section 746.3(e) of the EAR.
Oral comments must be followed by written memoranda, which will also be a matter of public record and will be available for public review and copying. Communications from agencies of theUnited States Government and general comments from foreign governments will not be available for public inspection.
The public record concerning this regulation will be maintained in the Bureau of Industry and Security Freedom of Information Records Inspection Facility (see ADDRESSES above). Records in this facility, including written public comments and memoranda summarizing the substance of oral communications, may be inspected and copied in accordance with regulations published in part 4 of Title 15 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Information about the inspection and copying of records at the facility may be obtained from the Bureau of Industry and Security Freedom of Information Officer. (See
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section above.)

(4) A license is required for the export or reexport to Iraq or transfer within Iraq of any item subject to the EAR if, at the time of the export, reexport or transfer, you know, have reason to know, or are informed by BIS that the item will be, or is intended to be, used for a “military end-use” or by a “military end-user”, as defined in this section. This license requirement does not apply to exports, reexports or transfers of items for the official use by personnel and agencies of the U.S. Government or exports, reexports or transfers to the Interim Government of Iraq or the Multinational Force in Iraq. See§ 740.11(b)(3) of the EAR for the definition of “agency of the U.S. Government.” BIS may inform an exporter, reexporter, or other person, either individually by specific notice or through amendment to the EAR, that a license is required for export, reexport or transfer of items subject to the EAR to specified end-users, because BIS has determined that there is an unacceptable risk of diversion to the uses or users described in this paragraph. Specific notice is to be given only by, or at the direction of, the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Export Administration. When such notice is provided orally, it will be followed by a written notice within two working days signed by the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Export Administration. The absence of any such notification does not excuse the exporter, reexporter or other person from compliance with the license requirements of this paragraph.
(e) Transition for licenses issued by the Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control. Prior to July 30, 2004, the Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) exercised primary licensing jurisdiction for transactions with Iraq, as provided in 31 CFR part 575. This section establishes a validity period for licenses issued by OFAC for exports or reexports to Iraq. (1) Validity period. Licenses issued by OFAC for the export or reexport of items that require a license to Iraq under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) shall continue to be valid under the EAR. For those licenses with specified expiration dates, such dates will continue to apply. Licenses without specified expiration dates will be valid through July 30, 2005. The recordkeeping requirements applicable to exports and reexports of items pursuant to licenses issued by OFAC are described in paragraph (e)(3) of this section.
(ii) A license is required for the transfer within Iraq to designated terrorists or terrorist organizations, as set forth in §§ 744.12, 744.13, or 744.14 of the EAR.
