I suspect your 'actual government reps' are actually either misinformed
or willfully misleading you (or perhaps incompetent).
Consult a lawyer who practices in this area. I am unaware of any
restrictions, except to countries labeled as supporters of terrorism.
Best regards.

Are you sure you aren't trying to comply with ancient
regulations that no

guys' will just use crypto from
other nations or open source products.
