High Risk Countries

The University of Oregon uses SAP Concur Travel and Expense to book travel and track travel expenses.

When booking travel, Concur checks a list of high-risk countries for which additional precautions, including information security, may need to be applied. The list was complied from the United State's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), The International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), The Department of State (DoS), and the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). The current list includes:
