The Unverified List is owned by which agency?

• A. BIS
• B. OFAC
• C. DDTC
• D. USPPI

Answer: (A)

The Unverified List is maintained by BIS, the Bureau of Industry and Security, which is part of the U.S. Department of Commerce. BIS manages export control lists and screening practices, including the Unverified List, to flag entities for which the government cannot verify information about end-use or end-user. This means exporters should exercise heightened due diligence or obtain licenses before dealing with listed parties. OFAC handles sanctions programs (like the Specially Designated Nationals list), not the Unverified List. DDTC manages the U.S. Munitions List and defense trade licensing, not this list. USPPI is a term for the party responsible for export paperwork, not a government agency managing lists.
