Most export transactions do not require specific approval in the form of
licenses from the U.S. government, although regulations regarding all exports
must be followed. To determine whether a license is needed to export a
particular commercial product or service, an exporter must first classify the
item by identifying what is called it's Export
Control Classification Number (ECCN).
