By King & Wood
作者：戴梦皓 郑子懿 张欣悦 陈若思 傅嫣儒 2024年7月25日，美国两大出口管制主管部门——美国国务院国防贸易管制局（“DDTC”）和美国商务部产业安全局（“BIS”）先后发布了三个全新的拟议规则，拟对《国际武器贸易条例》（“ITAR”）和《出口管理条例》（“EAR”）下关于特定事项最终用途以及美国人在特定事项下的活动进行限制。这是自2018年《出口管制改革法》（“ECRA”）颁布以来，美国出口管制主管部门基于ECRA相关授权进行的又一次重大监管政策调整。而相关规定一旦正式实施，从广度和深度而言，其对中国企业的影响可能会超过包括半导体新规在内的过往几年美国出口管制规则的历次修订。我们在此将结合本次拟议规则的相关内容、美国国会相关立法动态以及美国相关监管部门在公开场合的表态，就本次相关拟议规则修订的来龙去脉和未来对国内产业的影响进行解读，希望能够对大家有所帮助。 阅读更多
