In 2019, the\u00a0NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act)<\/a>\u00a0banned the selling or installing of the products by several companies primarily based in the\u00a0People\u2019s Republic of China<\/a>. Furthermore, parts made by such companies that are included in other products or are OEM will be subject to enhanced scrutiny or restriction due to section 889 compliance. Furthermore, in 2021, the United States Congress passed a bill banning the import and sale of products by both Hikvision and Dahua, taking effect within the near future after the president signed it into law.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Hikvision and Dahua banned by us government<\/span><\/h2>

As of October 22nd, 2021, the United States House of Representatives passed a bill that will eventually ban\u00a0Hikvision<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Dahua<\/a>\u00a0manufactured devices from both being imported and sold. The bill was later signed by the president shortly thereafter. According to the reasoning written into the specific bill, the ban comes due to the heightened national security risk the propagation of such devices represents. These companies are also included with three more additional Chinese companies: Huawei, ZTE, and Hytera. On top of such a ban brought about by section 889 compliance, companies that are considered OEM in relation to any of the original Chinese manufacturers will be subject to new restrictions and scrutiny in relation to federal use.<\/p>

      What is an OEM?<\/span><\/h2>\n

      OEM is an acronym for original equipment manufacturer and is typically used to describe a company that makes parts specifically for the implementation into another company\u2019s products. Hikvision, for example, has a massive list of companies it produces OEM parts for. Such products, security systems, and more are not banned by section 889 in the NDAA bill from regular use across the United States, just restricted from federal use. Furthermore, these devices will not necessarily stop working after the policies in the previously mentioned bill are implemented. Simply put, OEM products are still a viable option for home business owners globally. However, for those that still have concerns, A1 Security Cameras has created a\u00a0list of Non-Chinese Security Camera Manufacturers<\/a>\u00a0that fit NDAA compliance to choose from for your consideration.<\/p>\n

      Why are they banned in the United States?<\/span><\/h2>\n

      According to the United States government in the NDAA bill, companies like Dahua and Hikvision feature an inherent risk to national security. After more than a few occasions of discovered security breaches, those representing intelligence agencies and national security see the devices as an avenue for the Chinese government to infiltrate the US through cybernetic espionage. Furthermore, due to companies like Hikvision partnering with the Chinese military to develop more advanced militaristic solutions, lawmakers see it as a safe assumption to take action against the manufacturer and companies similar to it like Dahua and Huawei. Ergo, section 889 compliance will be enforced at the federal level. Both of the latter companies have also made similar commitments to the communist government. This has also given Congress ample reason to restrict contractors and government entities to a list of NDAA compliant cameras.<\/p>\n

      How does this affect me?<\/span><\/h2>\n

      When concerning federal agencies and contractors, manufactured products by Dahua, Hikvision, Huawei, other banned companies, and those that use them as OEM must remove such devices from use immediately to be NDAA Section 889 compliant. In addition, those that are federal contractors for the United States government will no longer be considered for business if such a measure is not internally taken.<\/p>\n

      There does not necessarily need to be any action taken for home and business owners in the immediate future. However, it should be noted that there will be less support for products banned by the United States government due to the passing of the bill. Furthermore, specific replacements may be more difficult to ascertain primarily due to the NDAA bill banning Hikvision and Dahua. However, A1 Security Cameras has a massive catalog of\u00a0security cameras<\/a>,\u00a0recorders<\/a>, and more for you to choose from. In addition, our professionals are ready to help you find the best solution for your needs if in the case you need to replace your device with a product under a different brand. We can still provide you with each of our presented products and can also fully follow NDAA section 889 compliance<\/p>\n

      What is the Secure Equipment Act?<\/span><\/h2>\n

      As of 2021, the Federal Communication Commission will no longer provide review or approval for any authorization application of products and equipment in relation to a list of banned manufacturers, companies, and other related entities in accordance with the NDAA section 889. As the system works, authorization is required for distribution in the United States of America, and the status of banned for any entity restricts related products from being distributed.<\/p>\n

      What is NDAA Compliance?<\/span><\/h2>\n

      It is not an organization or federal agency but an annual bill. The NDAA, acronym for National Defense Authorization Act, is the federal laws and costs authorized for the United States Department of Defense. Since 1661, Congress has implemented such rules annually to help faster implement national and international policies and processes committed to by the US Department of Defense.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

      What is NDAA Section 889 compliance?<\/span><\/h2>\n

      Signed into law in 2019 through the National Defense Authorization Act, Section 889 compliance explicitly prohibits United States federal entities, recipients of grants or loans, and contractors from using equipment or products banned by the United States. In addition, the section laid the groundwork for the later 2020 and 2021 list of prohibited manufacturers from gaining approval when seeking to do any business in the United States.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      Is NDAA compliant the same as TAA?\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
      \n\t\t\t\t
      \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

      No, NDAA compliance and TAA compliance are not the same, although they can be related in some contexts.<\/p>

      1. NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act) Compliance:<\/strong> NDAA compliance refers to adhering to the provisions outlined in the National Defense Authorization Act, which is a U.S. federal law that specifies the budget and expenditures for the Department of Defense.\u00a0<\/p><\/li>

      2. TAA (Trade Agreements Act) Compliance:<\/strong> TAA compliance, on the other hand, relates to trade agreements signed by the United States, such as the World Trade Organization Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO GPA) and various free trade agreements (FTAs). The Trade Agreements Act sets out requirements for federal government procurement, and it generally requires that products purchased by the U.S. government originate from countries that are parties to these trade agreements. TAA compliance ensures that products meet these sourcing criteria.<\/p><\/li><\/ol>

        While NDAA compliance and TAA compliance are distinct concepts, they can overlap in situations where NDAA provisions or requirements impact the sourcing and procurement of products for the U.S. government. For instance, certain NDAA provisions may restrict the use of products or services from specific countries or entities due to national security concerns, and TAA compliance would then require that any products sourced under government contracts meet the trade agreements’ criteria.<\/p>

        NDAA compliance primarily deals with national security and defense-related procurement, while TAA compliance deals with trade agreements and procurement sourcing requirements. The extent to which they overlap depends on specific regulations and government contracts.<\/p>

        China is not considered TAA (Trade Agreements Act)<\/strong> compliant for U.S. federal government procurement purposes. The TAA establishes certain eligibility criteria for products to be considered compliant, and it generally requires that products must originate from countries that are parties to specific trade agreements with the United States. China is not a party to the trade agreements covered by the TAA.<\/p>

        The TAA primarily covers trade agreements such as the World Trade Organization Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO GPA<\/a>)<\/strong> and various free trade agreements (FTAs) that the United States has signed with other countries. These agreements set out the criteria for products to be eligible for government procurement contracts, and they typically involve countries that have open and reciprocal access to each other’s government procurement markets.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
