Automated Export System Updates for No License Required (NLR) Filings - UPDATE
Effective July 13, 2022, Response Code 66Q will be upgraded from “Compliance Alert” to “Fatal” in the Automated Export System (AES). The Response Message 66Q was initially deployed on January 13, 2022 for exports filed under the license type “C33: No License Required (NLR)”. When a filer selects License Type C33, they are subject to the terms, provisions, and conditions described in the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) in 15 CFR Parts 730-774.
Under the EAR, an item may require a BIS export license or license exception and may not be exported under the License Type C33 NLR depending on the reason for control of the ECCN and Country of Destination. If a filer attempts to file Electronic Export Information (EEI) with an ECCN(s) and Country of Destination combination that is prohibited to be shipped under NLR, pursuant to the EAR, they will now receive the following AES generated Response Message:
Response Code: 66Q
Narrative Text: ECCN & CTRY OF DEST NOT ALLOWED FOR C33 (NLR)
Severity: FATAL
How to Address this Response Code:
Please review the accuracy of the reported ECCN, Country of Destination, and License Type (15 CFR Parts 730-774). If inaccurate, please correct the appropriate fields and resubmit. If all three fields are reported correctly and this response code is still occurring, please email BIS at ECDOEXS@bis.doc.gov and inquire about the ECCN and additional licensing authorization that may be required.
For questions regarding these AES changes, please contact the Bureau of Industry and Security at: ECDOEXS@bis.doc.gov
For general questions regarding AES and filing the EEI, please contact the Economic Management Division (EMD) at the Bureau of the Census at 1-800-549-0595, option 1.
