Ask the ‘export expert’
Question:
What is ‘publicly available’? What
does ‘public domain’ mean?
Answer:
The Export Administration Regulations
(EAR) define ‘publicly available
information’ as ‘information that is generally
accessible to the interested public
in any form and, therefore, not subject to
the EAR.’
‘Publicly available technology and
software’ is defined as ‘that technology
and software that are already published
or will be published; arise during or
result from fundamental research; are
educational; or are included in certain
patent applications.’
The International Traffic in Arms
Regulations (ITAR) definition of ‘public
domain’ is long so it is summarized here

as ‘information which is published and
which is generally accessible or available
to the public: through sales at news
stands and bookstores; through subscriptions
which are available without
restriction; at public libraries; through
patents; through unlimited distribution
at a conference which is generally accessible
to the public in the US; through
fundamental research in science and engineering
at accredited institutions of
higher learning in the US where the
resulting information is ordinarily published
and shared broadly in the scientific
community.’
