ECCN 3D001
NSRSATSoftware specially designed for the development or production of commodities controlled by 3A001.b to 3A002.h, 3A090, or 3B (except 3B001.a.4, c, d, f.1, f.5, k to n, p.2, p.4, r, 3B002.c, 3B903, 3B904, 3B991, 3B992, 3B993, or 3B994).
What This ECCN Covers
ECCN 3D001 controls "software" specially designed for the development or production of the electronics commodities referenced in the entry — broadly 3A001.b through 3A002.h, 3A090, and much of 3B — subject to the listed carve-outs. This captures the design-automation and production software behind controlled components and semiconductor manufacturing equipment, and is controlled for National Security, Regional Stability, and Anti-Terrorism reasons.
Who needs to check this?
EDA and process-software vendors, and OEMs distributing development or production software alongside controlled Category 3 hardware.
Compliance tip
Software controls follow the hardware ECCN they support, so identify the exact referenced commodity. The Regional Stability reason ties into advanced-semiconductor policy — treat exports linked to advanced-node fabrication with extra diligence, and verify the §734.7 "published" exclusion before assuming open-source software is outside the EAR.
Control Reasons
Items controlled for national security reasons under multilateral export control regimes.
Items controlled for regional stability reasons.
Items controlled for anti-terrorism reasons. Most items on the CCL have AT controls.
