Editorial commentary
Under EAR and ITAR, a transfer of controlled technology to a foreign national constitutes a deemed export, requiring an export licence in many cases unless an exemption applies. Common deemed-export scenarios in research include access by foreign graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, or visiting scholars to controlled technical data or laboratory equipment. Institutions manage deemed-export risk through technology control plans, segregated lab access, and visa-based review.
