Wassenaar Arrangement vs EAR

Wassenaar Arrangement vs EAR are they the same?

 

 

Import/export controls

Wassenaar Arrangement (1996 – present): 41 "Iron Curtain" country members Limits exports on military and "dual-use" technologies ex: drones, satellites. 

 

(EAR) export adminstration regulations - ctrls the export of dual-use tech items that have both civilian and military

Wassenaar is a voluntary arrangement between countries, while EAR is a strict U.S. law with legal penalties

 

Both deal with dual-use technologies, but EAR is part of a broader U.S. regulatory framework that includes ITAR for defense-specific items
