Under which condition is a Commerce License not required?

A Commerce License is not required when a License Exception applies. License Exceptions are specific conditions under which the export of goods, technology, or software may occur without a formal license from the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS). These exceptions are designed to streamline and facilitate trade when certain criteria are met, such as items that are of low risk or for low-restricted destinations. By utilizing a License Exception, businesses can comply with regulations while avoiding the complexities of obtaining a standard Commerce License, thus promoting efficient international commerce.

In the context of the other conditions provided, an Import License being granted or government employees being involved do not inherently negate the need for a Commerce License. Likewise, the implementation of a special tariff pertains more to customs duties rather than the licensing requirements for exporting or importing goods.
