BIS will generally deny applications to export and reexport luxury goods, e.g., luxury automobiles; yachts; gems; jewelry; other fashion accessories; cosmetics; perfumes; furs; designer clothing; luxury watches; rugs and tapestries; electronic entertainment software and equipment; recreational sports equipment; tobacco; wine and other alcoholic beverages; musical instruments; art; and antiques and collectible items including but not limited to rare coins and stamps.
BIS will continue to generally deny applications to export and reexport arms and related materiel controlled on the CCL and items controlled under the multilateral export control regimes (the Missile Technology Control Regime, the Nuclear Suppliers Group, the Australia Group, and the Wassenaar Arrangement). This includes items specified in UN documents S/2006/814, S/2006/815 and S/2006/853. BIS will also generally deny applications to export and reexport other items that the UN determines could contribute to North Korea's nuclear-related, ballistic missile-related, or other weapons of mass destruction-related programs.
BIS will also generally approve applications to export or reexport: non-food, non-medical humanitarian items (e.g., blankets, basic footwear, heating oil, and other items meeting subsistence needs) intended for the benefit of the North Korean people; items in support of United Nations humanitarian efforts; and agricultural commodities and medical devices that are determined not to be luxury goods.
BIS will review on a case-by-case basis applications to export and reexport all other items subject to the EAR.

On July 4, 2006, in defiance of international calls for restraint, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) proceeded with the launch and testing of a series of ballistic missiles. On July 15, 2006, the United Nations (UN) Security Council adopted Resolution 1695 (UNSCR 1695), condemning North Korea for its actions. In UNSCR 1695, the Security Council demanded that North Korea suspend all ballistic missile-related activity and reinstate its moratorium on missile launches. Subsequently, the President signed the North Korea Nonproliferation Act of 2006 (Pub. L. 109-353), which affirmed Congress' statement that it should be the policy of the United States to impose sanctions on persons who supported North Korea's missile or weapons of mass destruction programs.
On October 9, 2006, despite the adoption of UNSCR 1695, and in flagrant disregard of the admonitions of the international community, North Korea conducted a nuclear test. On October 14, 2006, the UN Security Council adopted Resolution 1718 (UNSCR 1718), which condemned the nuclear test and expressed the gravest concern over the challenge such a test constitutes to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, to peace and stability in the region, and to international efforts to strengthen the global nonproliferation regime. Among other things, UNSCR 1718 decides that all UN Member States shall prevent the direct or indirect supply, sale, or transfer to North Korea of: (1) Certain arms and related materiel; (2) items set out in the lists in UN documents S/2006/814, S/2006/815, and S/2006/853 (available at http://www.un.org/Docs/sc/committees/1718/1718SelEng.htm), as well as other items identified by the Security Council or the Sanctions Committee established by UNSCR 1718 that could contribute to North Korea's nuclear-related, ballistic missile-related, and other weapons of mass destruction-related programs; and (3) luxury goods. UNSCR 1718 also decides that Member States shall prevent transfers to North Korea of technical training, advice, services, or assistance related to the provision, manufacture, maintenance or use of the items specified above. Furthermore, UNSCR 1718 demands that North Korea, in a verifiable and irreversible manner, abandon nuclear weapons, existing nuclear programs, and all other existing weapons of mass destruction programs. The Resolution also decides that North Korea must suspend all ballistic missile activities, demands that North Korea return to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, and requires that North Korea act in accordance with the terms and conditions of its International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Safeguards Agreement.
On December 7, 2006, in accordance with Section 102(b) of the Arms Export Control Act, as amended (22 U.S.C. 2799aa-1), the President determined that North Korea had detonated a nuclear explosive device. The President directed the relevant agencies and instrumentalities of the United States to take the necessary actions to impose the sanctions described in Section 102(b)(2) of that Act. See 72 FR 1899 (Jan. 16, 2007). Section 102(b)(2)(G) of that Act provides that dual-use export control authorities shall be used to prohibit exports of specific goods and technology to any country so identified by the President.
Changes to Licensing Requirements and Policy Back to Top
As a result of North Korea's test launch of ballistic missiles in July, 2006, and testing of a nuclear device in October, 2006, and consistent with UNSCR 1718, the United States is imposing new export and reexport controls on North Korea.
Under this final rule, in accordance with UNSCR 1718 and the foreign policy interests of the United States, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) will require a license for the export and reexport to North Korea of all items subject to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR), except food and medicines that are not on the Commerce Control List (CCL). Although a license is already required to export and reexport to North Korea all items controlled on the CCL for Nuclear Nonproliferation (NP) and Missile Technology (MT) reasons, BIS also will require a license for these items (except for items classified under Export Commodity Classification Number (ECCN) 7A103) in accordance with the President's December 7, 2006 directive regarding implementation of Section 102(b) of the Arms Export Control Act.
Pursuant to new Section 746.4(c) of the EAR, BIS will review license applications for the export or reexport of luxury goods to North Korea under a general policy of denial. This policy of denial applies to, but is not limited to applications to export and reexport luxury goods including, for example: Luxury automobiles; yachts; gems; jewelry; other fashion accessories; cosmetics; perfumes; furs; designer clothing; luxury watches; rugs and tapestries; electronic entertainment software and equipment; recreational sports equipment; tobacco; wine and other alcoholic beverages; musical instruments; art; and antiques and collectible items, including but not limited to rare coins and stamps. These and similar items have been imported by North Korea for the use and benefit of government officials and their families, rather than for the good of the North Korean people. In new Supplement No. 1 to part 746 of the EAR, BIS will provide further detail regarding the illustrative list of luxury goods set forth in Section 746.4(c). The determination of whether an item is a luxury good will be made on a case-by-case basis. In some cases, the end-use or end-user will be relevant to this determination. For example, an item being exported to a humanitarian organization for purposes of providing humanitarian assistance to the people of North Korea may not be considered a luxury good, but the same item going to a different end-user might be considered a luxury good and might not be approved. Computer laptops and luxury automobiles will be exempted from the general policy of denial if they are being exported or reexported to organizations legitimately involved in humanitarian relief efforts, other internationally sanctioned efforts, or in the interest of the U.S. Government.
BIS will review under a general policy of approval license applications for the export or reexport of humanitarian items other than food or medicine (e.g., blankets, medical supplies, heating oil, and other items meeting subsistence needs) intended for the benefit of the North Korean people. This policy applies to license applications to export or reexport items in support of UN humanitarian efforts and programs. The general policy of approval also extends to agricultural commodities (as defined in Section 102 of the Agricultural Trade Act of 1978) and medical devices (as defined in Section 201 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act) that are determined by BIS, in consultation with the interagency license review community, not to be luxury goods. Applications for all other exports and reexports of EAR99 items will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
Consistent with UNSCR 1718 and existing U.S. export control policy, BIS will review license applications for arms and related materiel controlled on the CCL and items controlled on the multilateral export control regime control lists (the Missile Technology Control Regime, the Nuclear Suppliers Group, the Australia Group, and the Wassenaar Arrangement) under a general policy of denial. This includes items specified in UN documents S/2006/814, S/2006/815 and S/2006/853. BIS will also generally deny applications to export and reexports other items that the UN Security Council or the Sanctions Committee has determined could contribute to North Korea's nuclear-related, ballistic missile-related or other weapons of mass destruction-related programs. In addition, applications to export or reexport items controlled on the CCL for NP and MT reasons (except ECCN 7A103 items) will be reviewed under a general policy of denial. Applications to export or reexport other items on the CCL will be reviewed in accordance with the licensing policy set forth in Section 742.19 of the EAR (Anti-terrorism: North Korea). Section 742.19 is being amended to make technical corrections and also to provide that applications to export or reexport parts and components for safety-of-flight will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
This final rule makes inapplicable for North Korea most license exceptions set forth in part 740 of the EAR. The only license exceptions that remain available for North Korea, as provided in new Section 746.4(b) are: TMP (15 CFR 740.9(a)(2)(viii) only) for items for use by the news media; GOV (15 CFR 740.11(a), (b)(2)(i), and (b)(2)(ii) only) for items for personal or official use by personnel and agencies of the U.S. Government, the IAEA, or the European Atomic Energy Community (Euratom); GFT (15 CFR 740.12) for the export or reexport of gift parcels not containing luxury goods by an individual to an individual or a religious, charitable or educational organization, and for the export or reexport by groups or organizations of certain donations to meet basic human needs; TSU (15 CFR 740.13(a) and (b) only) for operation technology and software for lawfully exported items and sales technology; BAG (15 CFR 740.14 (a) through (d) only) for exports of items by individuals leaving the United States as personal baggage; and AVS (15 CFR 740.15(a)(4) only) for civil passenger aircraft on temporary sojourn.
Other Conforming Changes Back to Top
Finally, to conform with the above-described changes and to make minor technical corrections, this rule makes limited revisions to Sections 732.1 and 732.3 (Steps for Using the EAR); Supplement No. 1 to Part 738 (the Country Chart); Sections 740.2 and 740.10 (License Exceptions); Sections 742.1 and 742.19 (Control Policy—CCL Based Controls); Section 746.1 (Embargoes and Other Special Controls); Section 772.1 (Definitions of Terms as used in the EAR); and Supplement No. 1 to Part 774 (Commerce Control List) of the EAR.
Expansion of Foreign Policy-Based Export Controls Back to Top
This rule imposes new export controls for foreign policy reasons. As required by Section 6 of the Export Administration Act of 1979, as amended (the Act), a report on the imposition of these controls was delivered to Congress on January 16, 2007. Although the Act expired on August 20, 2001, Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001, 3 CFR, 2001 Comp., p. 783 (2002), as extended by the Notice of August 3, 2006, 71 FR 44551 (Aug. 7, 2006), has continued the Export Administration Regulations in effect under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.
Savings Clause Back to Top
Items that did not require a license prior to the publication of this rule for export or reexport to North Korea and that are on dock for loading, on lighter, laden aboard an exporting carrier or en route aboard a carrier to a port of export on January 26, 2007, may be exported or reexported without being subject to this rule if the items are exported or reexported before midnight as of February 9, 2007. Any such item not actually exported or reexported before midnight February 9, 2007, may be exported or reexported only if authorized pursuant to this final rule. Exporters holding valid licenses for export or reexport to North Korea prior to January 26, 2007 are authorized to continue shipments pursuant to the terms and conditions of their licenses.
