The Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security, BIS, has implemented a License Exception entitled “Support for the Cuban People” (License Exception SCP) which authorizes unlicensed sales of:
- Building materials, equipment, and tools
- For use by the private sector to construct or renovate privately-owned buildings, including privately-owned residences, businesses, places of worship, and buildings for private sector social or recreational use
- Tools and equipment for private sector agricultural activity
- Tools, equipment, supplies, and instruments for use by private sector entrepreneurs
But only if such items are classified EAR99 or are controlled by BIS solely for anti-terrorism reasons.
Caution: All sales to Cuba are subject to a number of conditions and restrictions. You should not engage in them without consulting counsel.
