Want to know if your product is subject to the US EAR?
Import your Bill of Materials (BOM) into EC Manager and get an instant, clear result.
1. Automated Analysis
The calculation of the de minimis percentage is based on data provided by the customer:
- Component classification (US ECCN)
- Unit price
- Quantities
- Sales price of the assembly
This data is uploaded via an Excel spreadsheet, which EC Manager can process automatically.
Based on this information, EC Manager calculates the percentage of content controlled by EAR regulations for the destination country.
2. Comparison with regulatory thresholds
The software automatically compares the results obtained with the applicable thresholds:
- Thresholds that vary by destination country
- ECCNs for which there is no de minimis threshold (e.g., ECCNs in the 600 series)
- Reduced risk of human error
This helps ensure the security of exports and prevents non-compliance issues.
3. Exportability and Archiving
The de Minimis calculation utilizes EC Manager’s export engine as follows:
- Analysis of the classification/destination country pair for each line
- Immediate display of results (traffic light system, alerts)
- Archiving of results in PDF format in the compliance folder for retrieval in the event of an audit.
In summary
The EC Manager software transforms the de Minimis calculation into a structured and automated process, using data provided by the client to ensure the reliability of the analysis and accelerate decision-making. The results are clear and precise and can be archived to meet audit and reporting requirements.
