The USML controls related to munitions are strict across the board. Items on the USML may not be exported without a license and may not be accessed by foreign nationals without a license. The CCL controls depend on the nature of the \u201cdual use\u201d item and the destination. Dual use means both a civil and military use. The CCL classifications are illustrated by Export Control Classification Numbers (ECCN.) If an item is not on the CCL or USML, and falls within the Commerce Department jurisdiction, it is classified as EAR99. EAR99 items are the majority of commercial goods and are only controlled for sanctioned\/embargoed countries or prohibited end users and end uses. A number of exceptions and exclusion to control also apply.
