U.S. Commerce adds Huawei affiliates to Entity List, and issues temporary general license
U.S. Commerce adds Huawei affiliates to Entity List
The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) of the U.S. Commerce Department today issued for publication in the Federal Register two final rules (1) identifying 46 additional Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. affiliates that require inclusion on the “Entity List” and (2) extending a “temporary general license” authorizing specific, limited engagements in transactions involving the export, re-export, and transfer of items to Huawei and its non-U.S. affiliates that are subject to the Entity List.

- Read the BIS final rule [PDF 342 KB] on the temporary general license.
As noted in a related Commerce Department release, since May 2019, Commerce has added over 100 individuals or organizations to the Entity List in connection to Huawei. The new restrictions on these affiliates are effective today, August 19, 2019.
BIS today also announced that it will extend the “temporary general license” (TGL) authorizing specific, limited engagements in transactions involving the export, re-export, and transfer of items under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to Huawei and its non-U.S. affiliates that are subject to the Entity List. According to the Commerce Department release, the continuation of the TGL is intended to “afford consumers across America the necessary time to transition away from Huawei equipment, given the persistent national security and foreign policy threat.” This license will be effective on August 19, 2019, for a 90-day period. Outside of the scope of the TGL, any exports, re-exports, or in-country transfers of items subject to the EAR will continue to require a license granted after a review by BIS under a presumption of denial.
