We're happy to share our compliance tools and resources. Included below are compliance-related URLs, convenient compliance tools such as The Searchable CCL, and other valuable resources.

The Searchable CCL®

Avant created the original Searchable Commerce Control List (CCL) and has updated it during and post-Export Control Reform.

Features:

• Easy offline searching of the entire Commerce Control List without having to open a separate file for each category

• A more legible format than the e-CFR

• Includes the latest alphabetical index to the CCL from BIS

• Includes EAR Part 772 “Definitions of Terms”

The current version is up-to-date as of June 24, 2025

Government Agencies

• U.S. Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS)

• U.S. Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC)

• U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC)

• U.S. Commercial Service (USCS)

• U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)

Reference Sites and Materials

• United States Munitions List (USML)

• Commerce Control List (CCL)

• Commerce Control List Index. BIS no longer maintains an index to the Commerce Control List, possibly because the Interactive CCL allows keyword searches, though this is not the same. Avant has therefore made the last known version of the CCL index available for download here as a public service.
