US EditionChina grants exemptions to export curbs on Nexperia chips for civilian use
China's exemptions on Nexperia chip exports aim to ease auto supply shortages amid ongoing disputes after Dutch control of the company since Sept 30, commerce ministry said.
- On Nov 9, China granted exemptions to export controls on Nexperia chips for civilian applications to ease shortages for carmakers and automotive suppliers.
- The Dutch government seized control on Sept 30, citing Wingtech's plan to move Nexperia’s European production to China and a risk to European economic security.
- Beijing halted exports of Nexperia's finished chips, mostly packaged in China, and said it began accepting exemption applications after a meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping on Oct 30.
- The commerce ministry urged the European Union to continue leveraging its influence to urge the Netherlands to promptly rectify its erroneous actions and hopes the EU will `further intensify` efforts to revoke Nexperia's seizure.
- The ministry did not define civilian use, noting German and Japanese companies reported resumed deliveries of Nexperia chips, while China-Netherlands and China-EU relations likely remain strained over ownership disputes.
