China Extends Export Control Suspension for 16 US Entities
China's Ministry of Commerce extended the suspension of export control measures on 16 U.S. entities for two months following bilateral trade consultations.
The Ministry of Commerce of China announced on Monday that it will extend the suspension of export control measures for 16 U.S. entities for an additional two months, effective Tuesday. These entities were originally placed on an export control list in April 2025, a designation that prohibited the export of dual-use items to them.
This decision follows a consensus reached during the eighth round of China-U.S. economic and trade consultations. While the suspension remains in place, the ministry maintains a licensing requirement for the shipment of dual-use items. Export operators must apply for licenses, which the ministry will review according to existing laws and regulations.
