When exporting a product that is under the CCL but not controlled to a destination country, what designation would you use?

When exporting a product that falls under the Commerce Control List (CCL) but is not subject to any export controls, the correct designation to use is "NLR," which stands for "No License Required." This designation indicates that the product can be exported without needing an export license because it is not controlled for export purposes to the destination country.

Understanding the terminology is critical; the CCL is a list established by the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) that specifies items that may require a license based on the technology or end-use. However, if a product is listed in the CCL but is specifically designated as not controlled, it means there are no restrictions on its export. Therefore, using "NLR" accurately reflects the regulatory status of the product for export purposes.

While other terms like "CCL," "EAR 99," and "Controlled" have their specific usages in export compliance, they do not apply in this context as the question specifically relates to an item that is not controlled, therefore confirming NLR as the appropriate designation.
