A:  Items eligible for export license exception ENC under paragraph 740.17b.1 may either be self-classified or formally reviewed by BIS. 740.17b.1 items which are self-classified, will have an ECCN of 5A002.A.1, indicate “SELFCLASS” in the CCATS field and “Unrestricted” in the encryption status of the PEPD tool.

A:  For exports from the U.S., the following guidance applies:

The Hong Kong Trade and Industry Department (HK TID) Cryptography Questionnaire form is generally required by HK TID to precisely determine the export classification of a product referenced in a HK TID license application.

Cisco proactively removes the requirement on the HK TID Cryptography Questionnaire for U.S. exports by supplying a U.S. Department of Commerce formal export classification directly to HK TID. Said another way, once Cisco supplies the formal export classification (CCATS) for a particular Cisco product to HK TID, HK TID no longer has any need to obtain the completed Cryptography Questionnaire form for that particular Cisco product from ANY Cisco customer.

The guidance given to Cisco directly from HK TID is as follows:

The party submitting the license application to HK TID should include a snapshot from the PEPD product search tool.

For Cisco products, the HK TID Cryptography Questionnaire is not required as Cisco product export classifications are available via the PEPD product search tool referenced above.
