US EAR CCL is updated on July 2
On July 2, 2012, the Bureau of Industry and Security ("BIS") issued final rule of updating the Commerce Control List ("CCL") to reflect the latest Wassenaar dual-use List of December 2011.
This update of CCL also reflect the list change of Australia Group ("AG").
US and Japan is relatively quick to reflect world regime list update. Japan will also update the list to reflect WA December 2011 list, the regulation is currently public comment review. I foresee the implementation is sometime in August or September this year.
