Have any of my colleagues registered with the government because you shipped an app that includes encryption? Could you ask around for me if not you yourself doing it? My MacOS, iOS, and Android app uses PointyCastle through Dart Flutter for SSH capability. I had AI produce a doc outlining what to do.

Here is an excerpt from the instructions for registering:

Submit Annual License Exception ENC Self-Classification Report

Reporting Period: Report covers January 1 – December 31 of each calendar year

Deadline: Report must be received by BIS and the ENC Encryption Request Coordinator by February 1 of the following year

Format Requirements: Prepare report per Supplement No. 8 to Part 742 in CSV format including:
Product Name

Manufacturer
ECCN (Export Control Classification Number)
Authorization Type
Item Type
Submitter Name

Mailing Address
Non-U.S. Components
Non-U.S. Manufacturing Locations

Submission Methods:

Electronic: Send as attachment to crypt-supp8@bis.doc.gov and enc@nsa.gov with subject line “self-classification report”

Have you done this? Would love some help!
