Entity List
The Entity List is a trade regulation tool used by the U.S. government to restrict exports of certain goods and technologies to specific foreign entities. When a company or organization appears on this list, it means that they have been deemed a national security risk or involved in activities contrary to U.S. interests. This designation prohibits U.S. companies from selling or transferring items to those entities without special permission, aiming to protect sensitive technologies and maintain national security. Essentially, it helps the government control who can access critical American innovations and resources.
