Title: Addition of Non-Material Changes That May Be Made to Export Licenses; and Addition of Non-Material Changes Requiring Prior BIS Notification and Approval 
Abstract: The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is amending the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by revising the section of the EAR that specifies what changes may be made to BIS export and reexport licenses. First, under an existing paragraph of this section, this rule expands the scope of non-material changes that are specified under this paragraph (i.e., non-material changes exporters and reexporters may self-determine are non-material provided the changes are within the scope of specified parameters). Second, under a new paragraph in this section, this rule adds a new sub-set of changes that may be made to an export or reexport license, provided the exporter or reexporter submits notification to BIS and BIS approves the change in writing as a non-material change to the export or reexport license. Third, under another new paragraph in this section, this rule adds provisions to clarify any changes not specified in this section are treated by BIS with a presumption of being material changes to export and reexport licenses. Lastly, this rule makes conforming changes to other parts of the EAR to conform with the revisions made to this section of the EAR.
