Does either the State Department or the Commerce Department require an exporter to obtain a product-specific export license before exporting a product from the U.S.?
Items subject to the export control jurisdiction of the State Department (Munitions List items) almost always require an export license before they can be exported from the U.S., whereas items controlled for export purposes by the Commerce Department (dual use items and civilian/commercial) require an export license in only a very small percentage (estimated at 5% or less) of cases.
