There were are large number of additions to the various US Government prohibited parties lists in the past few months. Terrorists and terrorist’s organizations were added, as well as a slew of persons in Zimbabwe and narcotics traffickers. BIS added several parties to its unverified entities list, including several of relevance to the aerospace community like Yunma Aircraft Mfg. in China. Dealing with an someone on the unverified entity lists is like dealing with someone with a red flag. You have a duty of inquiry to ensure that an export violation is not occurring. If you are not able to clarify that, you may not proceed with the shipment unless licensed by BIS.
