Which regulatory framework contains the United States Munitions List (USML)?

• A. ITAR
• B. EAR
• C. BIS
• D. FTR

Answer: (A)

The United States Munitions List is contained under ITAR—the International Traffic in Arms Regulations. ITAR governs the export, reexport, and transfer of defense articles and defense services, and the USML is the official list within ITAR that identifies which items are defense-related and require licensing from the State Department’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls. The other frameworks handle different domains: EAR (Export Administration Regulations) covers dual-use and civilian items, BIS administers EAR, and FTR relates to export reporting. So ITAR is the correct framework.
