U.S. lawmakers have urged the Department of Commerce to remove Syria from the “E:1” designation, which imposes licensing requirements and restrictions on exports of U.S. goods and technology to the country. They warned that the designation is hindering U.S. companies from entering the market and could push Damascus toward China. Although Washington revoked Syria’s designation as a state sponsor of terrorism in August 2026 and dismantled its comprehensive sanctions program, restrictions still apply to some dual-use goods. They also cover products manufactured outside the United States if more than 10% of their controlled components are U.S.-origin. Experts and officials say slow licensing procedures are deterring investors. They view removing the designation as a necessary step toward restoring confidence, but say it cannot substitute for banking and regulatory reforms or efforts to combat money laundering and terrorist financing.
