Department of War Launches New Website to Help Industry Partners Navigate Section 805 Supply Chain Requirements

The Department of War (DoW) today announced the launch of a new website to provide guidance and resources for industry partners on the implementation of Section 805 of the Fiscal Year 2024 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). This provision restricts future DoW procurement from entities identified on the Section 1260H list of Chinese military companies.

The new website https://www.businessdefense.gov/805-waiver-request.html managed by the Office of the Assistant Secretary of War for Industrial Base Policy serves as a central hub for information regarding the upcoming prohibitions. It details the timeline for both the Entity Provision or "direct" ban, effective June 30, 2026, and the Goods and Services Prohibition or "indirect ban," effective June 30, 2027, which applies to supply chains.

The site provides critical resources for companies doing business with the Department, including a clear process for requesting a waiver. The waiver process is designed for partners who require additional time to transition away from suppliers on the 1260H list and requires a compelling justification and a detailed phase-out plan.

Industry partners are encouraged to visit the new website and email the Section 805 team with any questions at [email protected].
