[Docket No: 060920245-6245-01]
Revision to the Unverified List--Guidance as to ``Red Flags''
AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[[Page 61707]]
SUMMARY: On June 14, 2002, the Bureau of Industry and Security
(``BIS'') published a notice in the Federal Register that set forth a
list of persons in foreign countries who were parties to past export
transactions where pre-license checks or post-shipment verifications
could not be conducted for reasons outside the control of the U.S.
Government (``Unverified List''). Additionally, on July 16, 2004, BIS
published a notice in the Federal Register that advised exporters that
the Unverified List would also include persons in foreign countries in
transactions where BIS is not able to verify the existence or
authenticity of the end-user, intermediate consignee, ultimate
consignee, or other party to the transaction. Those notices advised
exporters that the involvement of a listed person as a party to a
proposed transaction constitutes a ``red flag'' as described in the
guidance set forth in Supplement No. 3 to 15 CFR part 732, requiring
heightened scrutiny by the exporter before proceeding with such a
transaction. This notice adds fourteen entities to the Unverified List.
The entities are: Semicom Technology International LLC, in the UAE,
Amiran Trading Company in the UAE, Sarelica (Sar Elica) FZC in the UAE,
Fuchs Oil Middle East in the UAE, Parto Abgardan in the UAE, Vitaswiss
Limited in the UAE, Al-Thamin General Trading LLC, in the UAE, Reza
Nezam Trading in the UAE, Davood Khosrojerdi, dba Al Musafer Tourism
and Cargo in the UAE, Part Tech Co., in the UAE, Bazar Trading Co., in
the UAE, Al Aarif Factory Equipment Trading LLC in the UAE, Centre
Bright Company in Hong Kong, and IC Trading Ltd., in Russia.
DATES: This notice is effective October 19, 2006.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Marcus Cohen, Office of Enforcement
Analysis, Bureau of Industry and Security, Telephone: (202) 482-4255.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In administering export controls under the
Export Administration Regulations (15 CFR parts 730 to 774) (``EAR''),
BIS carries out a number of preventive enforcement activities with
respect to individual export transactions. Such activities are intended
to assess diversion risks, identify potential violations, verify end-
uses, and determine the suitability of end-users to receive U.S.
commodities or technology. In carrying out these activities, BIS
officials, or officials of other Federal agencies acting on BIS's
behalf, selectively conduct pre-license checks (``PLCs'') to verify the
bona fides of the transaction and the suitability of the end-user or
ultimate consignee. In addition, such officials sometimes carry out
post-shipment verifications (``PSVs'') to ensure that U.S. exports have
actually been delivered to the authorized end-user, are being used in a
manner consistent with the terms of a license or license exception, and
are otherwise consistent with the EAR.
In certain instances BIS officials, or other Federal officials
acting on BIS's behalf, have been unable to perform a PLC or PSV with
respect to certain export control transactions for reasons outside the
control of the U.S. Government (including a lack of cooperation by the
host government authority, the end-user, or the ultimate consignee).
BIS listed a number of foreign end-users and consignees involved in
such transactions in the Unverified List that was included in BIS's
Federal Register notice of June 14, 2002. See 67 FR 40910. On July 16,
2004, BIS published a notice in the Federal Register that advised
exporters that the Unverified List would also include persons in
foreign countries where BIS is not able to verify the existence or
authenticity of the end user, intermediate consignee, ultimate
consignee, or other party to an export transaction. See 69 FR 42652.
The June 14, 2002 and July 16, 2004 notices advised exporters that
the involvement of a listed person in a transaction constituted a ``red
flag'' under the ``Know Your Customer'' guidance set forth in
Supplement No. 3 to 15 CFR part 732 of the EAR. Under that guidance,
whenever there is a ``red flag,'' exporters have an affirmative duty to
inquire, verify, or otherwise substantiate the proposed transaction to
satisfy themselves that the transaction does not involve a
proliferation activity prohibited in 15 CFR part 744, and does not
violate other provisions of the EAR. The Federal Register notices
further stated that BIS may periodically add persons to the Unverified
List based on the criteria set forth above, and remove persons when
warranted.
This notice advises exporters that BIS is adding to the Unverified
List the following entities: Al Aarif Factory Equipment Trading LLC,
Sheikh Fahad Saad Alsbah Bldg., Al Maktoum Street, P.O. Box 28162,
Dubai, UAE (also located in Al Quoz district of Dubai), Al-Thamin
General Trading LLC, P.O. Box 41364, Dubai, UAE, Amiran Trading
Company, Arbift Tower, 1st Floor, Flat No. 1803, Deira, UAE, also P.O.
Box 6 1463, Jebel Ali, Dubai, UAE, Bazar Trading Co, Baniyas Tower,
Suite 212, Dubai, UAE. Centre Bright Company, Unit 7A, Nathan
Commercial Building, 430-436 Nathan Road, Kowloon City, Hong Kong,
Davood Khosrojerdi, dba Al Musafer Tourism and Cargo, Concord Tower, Al
Maktoum Street, PO Box 77900, Dubai, UAE, Fuchs Oil Middle East,
Sharjah Airport International Free Zone, Sharjah, UAE, IC Trading Ltd,
Yauzskaya Str. 8, Bldg 2, Moscow, Russia, Part Tech Co, Baniyas Tower,
Suite 212, Dubai, UAE, Parto Abgardan, Showroom 5, Sheikh
Rashid bin Khalifa al Maktoum building, Dubai, UAE, Reza Nezam Trading,
Al Dana Center, Al Maktoum Street, P.O. Box 41382, Dubai, UAE, Sarelica
(Sar Elica) FZC, Bldg. 3, Office No. 3 G-08, P.O. Box 41 71 0,
Hamariya Free Zone, Sharjah, UAE, Semicom Technology International LLC,
Office No. 18, 6th Floor, Horizons Business Centre, Al-Doha Centre, Al-
Maktoum St., P.O. Box 41096, Dubai, UAE, and Vitaswiss Limited, P.O.
Box 61069, Office R/A 8 CB03, UAE, BIS has determined that it
is appropriate to add these entities to the Unverified List because BIS
was unable to conduct a PLC, a PSV, and/or was unable to verify the
existence or authenticity of an end user, intermediate consignee,
ultimate consignee, or other party to an export transaction. A ``red
flag'' now exists for transactions involving these entities due to
their inclusion on the Unverified List. As a result, exporters have an
affirmative duty to inquire, verify, or otherwise substantiate the
proposed transaction to satisfy themselves that the transaction does
not involve a proliferation activity prohibited in 15 CFR part 744, and
does not violate other provisions of the EAR.
The Unverified List, as modified by this notice, is set forth
below.
Dated: October 11, 2006.
Darryl W. Jackson,
Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Export Enforcement.
Unverified List (As of October 19, 2006)
The Unverified List includes names, countries, and last known
addresses of foreign persons involved in export transactions with
respect to which: the Bureau of Industry and Security (``BIS'') could
not conduct a pre license check (``PLC'') or a post shipment
verification (``PSV'') for reasons outside of the U.S. Government's
control; and/or BIS was not able to verify the existence or
authenticity of the end user, intermediate consignee, ultimate
consignee or other party to an export transaction. Any transaction to
which a listed person is a party will be deemed to raise a ``red flag''
with respect to such transaction within the meaning of the guidance set
forth in Supplement No. 3 to 15 CFR part 732. The red flag applies
[[Page 61708]]
to the person on the Unverified List regardless of where the person is
located in the country included on the list.
