In the latest move following high-level China-U.S. economic and trade talks in Stockholm, the Ministry of Commerce of the Chinese mainland has rolled out fresh adjustments to its export-control measures for certain U.S. entities.
Back on April 4 and 9, 2025, the ministry had added 28 U.S. entities to its export-control list, restricting the export of 'dual-use' items—goods that can serve both civilian and military purposes. Then, on May 14, these restrictions were suspended for 90 days as part of the mutual agreement struck in Stockholm.
On Tuesday, the ministry announced that the suspension will be extended for another 90 days for the 16 firms listed on April 4 🔄. At the same time, it lifted the restrictions entirely for the 12 entities added on April 9 🎉.
For exporters eyeing opportunities with these U.S. companies, the process is simple: file an application with the Ministry of Commerce according to relevant regulations. The ministry will review each request under the law and green-light shipments if all conditions are met.
These adjustments come as both sides work to stabilize trade ties and boost market confidence. Stay tuned to see how these changes shape the flow of technology and goods across borders! 🌐📦
