persons with terrorists who threaten to disrupt the Middle East peace 
process. Pursuant to the Executive Order, the Department of the 
Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), maintains 31 CFR part 
595, the Terrorism Sanctions Regulations. In the Appendices to 31 CFR 
Chapter V, pursuant to 31 CFR part 595, these Specially Designated 
Terrorists are identified by the bracketed suffix initials [SDT]. The 
requirements set forth below further the objectives of Executive Order 
12947.
    (a) License requirement(s). (1) All exports and reexports to an SDT 
by a U.S. person of any item subject to the EAR; and
    (2) A license requirement applies to all exports and reexports to an 
SDT of any item subject to the EAR on the Commerce Control List (CCL).
    (3) To avoid duplication, U.S. persons are not required to seek 
separate authorization for an export or reexport subject both to the EAR 
and to OFAC's Terrorism Sanctions Regulations. Therefore, if OFAC 
authorizes an export or reexport by a U.S. person to a SDT, no separate 
authorization from BXA is necessary.
    (4) Any export or reexport by a U.S. person of any item subject to 
both the EAR and OFAC's Terrorism Sanctions Regulations and not 
authorized by OFAC is a violation of the EAR. Any export from abroad or 
reexport by a non-U.S. person of items requiring a license pursuant to 
this section and not authorized by BXA is a violation of the EAR.
    (5) These licensing requirements supplement any other requirements 
set forth elsewhere in the EAR.
    (b) Exceptions. No License Exceptions or other BXA authorization for 
items described by paragraph (a) of this section are available for 
exports or reexports to SDTs.
    (c) Licensing policy. Applications for licenses required by 
paragraph (a) of this section generally will be denied. You should 
consult with OFAC concerning transactions subject to OFAC licensing 
requirements.
    (d) Contract sanctity. Contract sanctity provisions are not 
available for license applications reviewed under this section.
