Abstract
This rule amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to implement the reversion to the Department of Commerce from the Department of the Treasury of the licensing responsibility for exports and reexports to Iraq of items subject to the EAR. In addition, a license will be required for certain transfers within Iraq of items subject to the EAR. This rule is consistent with United Nations Security Council Resolutions 1483 (2003) and 1546 (2004), which lifted the comprehensive United Nations trade embargo imposed on Iraq but retained an embargo on arms and related materiel and their means of production.
