Key Points
The U.S. government has recently imposed controls pertaining to “Communist Chinese Military Companies” (CCMCs or “1237 entities”); Chinese “Military End Users” (MEUs); and Chinese “Military-Intelligence End Users” (MIEUs). The U.S. government has also been adding Chinese companies to the Entity List based on concerns regarding the companies’ relationships to the Chinese military industrial complex.
Although the names and underlying policy concerns are similar, the scope and source of the prohibitions regarding each set of Chinese entities are quite different. Companies on one of the lists are not automatically on others, but overlap is possible as the lists evolve. These lists are in addition to the Chinese entities that are on the Unverified List (UVLs), the Denied Persons List (DPLs), and the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List (SDNs).
