Abstract: E.O. 13873, “Securing the Information and Communications Technology and Services Supply Chain,” (May 15, 2019) delegated to the Secretary of Commerce broad authority to prohibit or impose mitigation measures on any information and communications technology and services (ICTS) Transaction with a foreign adversary nexus that is subject to United States jurisdiction and poses undue or unacceptable risks to the United States. This request for a new information collection is necessary due to a regulation focused on Connected Vehicles. Declarations and Specific Authorizations will be used as tools to ensure compliance with our regulation and are integral to the success of this program. All VCS Hardware Importers or Connected Vehicle Manufacturers must submit a Declaration annually to attest that they are not knowingly engaging in an otherwise Prohibited Transaction.
