## Abstract

In this interim final rule, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to revise the scope and the terms used in the EAR to describe "standards- related activities" that are subject to the EAR. BIS is making these revisions to ensure that export controls and associated compliance concerns do not impede the participation and leadership of U.S. companies in legitimate standards- related activities.
