Acronym definitions

ECCN = Export Control Classification Number
NL* = No License

End-use/’catch all’ If your goods are not listed on the UK Strategic Export Control Lists, you may still need a licence under End-Use Controls. This applies if the goods are likely to be sent to an end-user where there are concerns about the possible use of the goods in a weapons of mass destruction (WMD) programme.

NLR** = No License Required
If your item falls under U.S. Department of Commerce jurisdiction and is not listed on the CCL, it is designated as EAR99. EAR99 items generally consist of low-technology consumer goods and do not require a license in many situations. However, if you plan to export an EAR99 item to an embargoed country, to an end-user of concern, or in support of a prohibited end-use, you may be required to obtain a license.

LR = License Required
ENC = US Commerce Department License Exception section 740.17 of the US EAR
ERN = Encryption Registration Number
SAAS = Software As A Service
CCL = Commerce Control List
