FAQ — Export Control Classification

​

Is ECCN the same as EU or French codes?
No. ECCN is U.S.-specific. European and national systems use other classifications like BDU or ML codes.

Can we do it ourselves?
Yes — self-classification is allowed but requires technical understanding and formal documentation. We can support, audit, or validate it.

Do you handle classification of cloud-based solutions?
Yes. We regularly work with intangible exports such as SaaS, algorithms, or remotely hosted data.

How often should a review be done?
Whenever products change or regulations evolve — typically once per year.
