For the latest list, it is recommended to directly consult the official website of the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) of the United States Department of Commerce or obtain the most accurate information through official channels. Since the specific list content is very large and constantly updated, it is impossible to list all entities here. If you need information on whether a specific company or institution is included in the Entity List, you can query the official website of the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) of the United States Department of Commerce or use the online tools it provides for search. The Entity List, originally established in 1997, was initially intended to restrict entities related to weapons of mass destruction. With the passage of time, the list has gradually expanded to include those entities that are considered to be involved in behaviors sanctioned by the State Department or pose a threat to the United States' national security and foreign policy.
