Deemed Exports
| Deemed Export Issues and Challenges | |
| The issue of a deemed export usually arises around the transfer of sensitive information, often in the university or research setting. According to the US Export Administration Regulations (EAR), the release of some types of sensitive technology or source code to certain foreign nationals within the United States is deemed an export to the home country of the foreign national. Specifically, a deemed export occurs when US technology is made available to foreign nationals by verbal communication, visual inspection or in practical use within or outside the United States.
Those organizations dealing with sensitive information must obtain an export license when they intend to transfer controlled technologies to foreign nationals in the United States; and when transfer of the same technology to the foreign national's home country would require an export license. Furthermore, that foreign national must not be on any government-issued restricted party list before disclosure occurs.
