§ 126.1

Prohibited exports, imports, and sales to or from certain countries

ITAR · Part 126

The destination and party screen. Paragraph (a) states the general policy of denial for exports, reexports, retransfers, and temporary imports of defense articles and defense services destined for or originating in certain countries, and the rule that exemptions do not apply unless a specific exemption says they do. Paragraph (d)(1) is a table of countries with a policy of denial. Paragraph (d)(2) is a table of countries with a policy of denial as specified in the named paragraph. Country names move by Federal Register rule — always open live eCFR / the dated FR callout on the country node.

  • Screen the end-user, the intermediate consignee, the dual-national employee, and the country of nationality — not just the ship-to address.
  • A policy of denial is not an absolute statutory embargo in every paragraph; some (d)(2) countries have defined case-by-case windows. Read the named paragraph.
  • This map’s country list reflects the (d)(1) and (d)(2) tables as published. Always open the live § 126.1 because names are added and removed by rule.
  • Cyprus § 126.1(r)(2) (live eCFR; FR 2026-18630, 91 FR 57787): from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027, the policy of denial and Cyprus's proscribed-destination status are suspended. Cyprus remains listed in Table 2. Defense trade with the Republic of Cyprus is not the same as trade into the northern part of the island. Open the Cyprus node.
  • Ethiopia: live eCFR § 126.1(n)–(o) [Reserved] (reflected in eCFR § 126.1 since the version dated 2026-09-18). Not in Table 2 to (d)(2). Ordinary ITAR licensing. Prefer live eCFR. Open the Ethiopia node. FR 2026-19161 / 91 FR 59059 is the absorbed rule.
  • § 126.1(a): live eCFR § 126.1 is the primary text. FR Doc. 2026-19404 (91 FR 60299, effective Sept. 23, 2026) is the provenance for restored (a)(2)(i)–(iii) and (a)(3). Open the § 126.1(a) node.
