ECCN
Description
An Export Control Classification Numbers (ECCN) is a five character alpha-numeric designation used on the Commerce Control List (CCL) to identify dual-use items for export control purposes.
An ECCN categorizes items based on the nature of the product, i.e. type of commodity, software, or technology and its respective technical parameters.
All ECCNs are divided into ten broad categories, and each category is further subdivided into five product groups. The first character of the ECCN identifies the broader category to which it belongs and the second character identifies the product group.
For example,
The ECCN code 3A001:
- “3” stands for “Electronics”
- “A” stands for “System, Equipment and Components”.
If an item falls under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Department of Commerce and is not listed on the CCL, it is designated as EAR99. The majority of commercial products are designated EAR99 and generally will not require a license to be exported or re-exported. However, if an EAR99 item is planned to be exported to an embargoed or sanctioned country, to a party of concern, or in support of a prohibited end-use, an exporter may be required to obtain a license.
1WorldSync Content Solutions assigns ECCN codes to the SKUs based on the specifically defined attribute mapping rules. These rules are maintained and updated according to ECCN codes set changes to ensure the coverage and the quality of the codes assignment.
