The Department of Commerce (Commerce), Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is revising the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and the Commerce Control List (CCL) to appropriately control certain silencers, mufflers, and sound suppressors (sound suppressors) that will no longer be described on the International Traffic in Arms Regulations U.S. Munitions List (USML). This interim final rule (IFR) complements a Department of State interim final rule published elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register (International Traffic in Arms Regulations: USML Category I Firearm Suppressors (1400-AG11) (State IFR)).

This IFR also revises the EAR to allow firearms and related items to be temporarily exported and reexported under a license exception as tools of trade, thereby relieving exporters of the regulatory burden of applying for authorization. Finally, this IFR clarifies which items fall within the scope of the EAR's entry clearance requirements for a temporary import.
