Croatia - U.S. Export Controls Croatia - U.S. Export Controls
The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is responsible for implementing and enforcing the Export Administration Regulations (EAR), which regulate the export and re-export of most U.S. commercial items. The items that BIS regulates are often referred to as "dual-use" items (i.e., items that have both commercial and military or proliferation applications) but purely commercial items without an obvious military use are also subject to the EAR.
The EAR does not control all goods, services, and technologies. Other U.S. government agencies regulate more specialized exports. For example, the U.S. Department of State has authority over defense articles and defense services. A list of other agencies involved in export controls can be found on Bureau of Industry and Security.
