Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) is a type of identifier used by governments to categorize and regulate the export of goods, software, and technology. It involves assigning specific codes or numbers to items based on their nature, technical specifications, and potential security or strategic concerns. These classifications help determine the level of control and restrictions applied to exports, ensuring compliance with national and international regulations, including non-proliferation, national security, and trade policies.

It is the responsibility of importing and exporting organizations to accurately classify their products and comply with the associated restrictions. MYSTCC will provide general guideline and trainings on how classification is done.
