What This ECCN Covers

ECCN 2B997 covers "robots" not controlled by 2B007 or 2B207 that are capable of using feedback information in real time to adjust processing — the Anti-Terrorism companion for capable commercial robots below the higher control thresholds. As an AT-only entry, it reaches a limited set of destinations.

Who needs to check this?

Robotics manufacturers and integrators exporting commercial robots with real-time feedback control that fall below 2B007/2B207.

Compliance tip

Confirm the robot is not caught by 2B007 or 2B207 first. AT controls require a license only to a limited destination list; screen the end user and end use against the Entity and SDN lists regardless of the low classification.
