US Edition300 India-Based Chinese Workers in Apple's Foxconn Facility Ordered Home
- On July 2, 2025, more than 300 Chinese workers employed by Foxconn were instructed to leave its iPhone manufacturing plants in India and go back to China.
- This order follows reports that China is restricting skilled labor from leaving and blocking attempts to use Chinese experts in India, complicating Foxconn's expansion there.
- Foxconn, Apple's largest iPhone assembler responsible for over 70% of production, has been boosting manufacturing in India despite losing many Chinese engineers, leaving mostly Taiwanese support staff.
- Over 300 Chinese employees have been withdrawn from Foxconn's factories in India, while Apple’s CEO, Tim Cook, noted that the company is increasing the shipment of iPhones made in India to address challenges posed by trade tensions.
- The recall may reduce Foxconn's Indian output efficiency and disrupt Apple's goal to increase India-made iPhones while geopolitical factors persist.
