128-bit crypto is allowed almost everywhere. For a precise view country per
country check:
http://www2.epic.org/reports/crypto2000/
Now if you are US based, your problem is to know if you are allowed to
export 128-bit crypto to a given country. To check this out go to:
http://www.bxa.doc.gov/Encryption/Default.htm
It is my understanding that:
U.S. exporters will be able to export and reexport all
encryption items, except cryptanalytic products and their related
technology, immediately to EU member states, Australia, Czech
Republic, Hungary, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, Poland and
Switzerland without a license (i.e., under a license exception).
For other countries you need a license.
The following countries (zones) are banned of 128-bit product exports:
Afghanistan
(Taliban-controlled areas), Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Serbia
(except
Kosovo), Sudan and Syria.
