Commerce Implements New Export Controls on Advanced Computing and Semiconductor
Manufacturing Items to the People’s Republic of China (PRC)
Washington, D.C.—The Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is
implementing a series of targeted updates to its export controls as part of BIS’s ongoing efforts
to protect U.S. national security and foreign policy interests. These updates will restrict the
People’s Republic of China’s (PRC’s) ability to both purchase and manufacture certain high-end
chips used in military applications and build on prior policies, company-specific actions, and less
public regulatory, legal, and enforcement actions taken by BIS.
The export controls announced in the two rules today restrict the PRC’s ability to obtain
advanced computing chips, develop and maintain supercomputers, and manufacture advanced
semiconductors. These items and capabilities are used by the PRC to produce advanced military
systems including weapons of mass destruction; improve the speed and accuracy of its military
decision making, planning, and logistics, as well as of its autonomous military systems; and
commit human rights abuses. Finally, these rules make clear that foreign government actions that
prevent BIS from making compliance determinations will impact a company’s access to U.S.
technology through addition to the Entity List.
“As I told Congress in July, my north star at BIS is to ensure that we are appropriately doing
everything in our power to protect our national security and prevent sensitive technologies with
military applications from being acquired by the People’s Republic of China’s military,
intelligence, and security services,” said Under Secretary of Commerce for Industry and
Security Alan Estevez. “The threat environment is always changing, and we are updating our
policies today to make sure we’re addressing the challenges posed by the PRC while we continue
our outreach and coordination with allies and partners.”
“The PRC has poured resources into developing supercomputing capabilities and seeks to
become a world leader in artificial intelligence by 2030. It is using these capabilities to monitor,
track, and surveil their own citizens, and fuel its military modernization,” said Assistant
Secretary of Commerce for Export Administration Thea D. Rozman Kendler. “Our actions
will protect U.S. national security and foreign policy interests while also sending a clear message
that U.S. technological leadership is about values as well as innovation.”
“BIS’s ability to determine whether a party is in compliance with our export control rules is a
core tenet宗旨 of our enforcement program,” said Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Export
Enforcement Matthew S. Axelrod. “Where BIS is prevented by a host government from
conducting our end-use checks in a timely manner, we will add parties to the Unverified List,
and if the delay is extreme enough, the Entity List, to prevent the risk of diversion of any U.S.
technology that could undermine our national security interests.”
The Department of Commerce briefed and consulted with close allies and partners on these
controls. The Department will work closely with industry as we implement all elements of the
Administration’s semiconductor agenda, to include ensuring compliance with these measures.
Summaries of the rules released today and relevant links to the rule text are provided below,
along with additional background on BIS’s ongoing work to update its approach to export
controls related to the PRC.
Implementing Controls Related to Advanced Computing and Semiconductor Manufacturing:
BIS’s rule on advanced computing and semiconductor manufacturing addresses U.S. national
security and foreign policy concerns in two key areas. First, the rule imposes restrictive export
controls on certain advanced computing semiconductor chips, transactions for supercomputer
end-uses, and transactions involving certain entities on the Entity List. Second, the rule imposes
new controls on certain semiconductor manufacturing items and on transactions for certain
integrated circuit (IC) end uses.
Specifically, the rule:
1.) Adds certain advanced and high-performance computing chips and computer
commodities that contain such chips to the Commerce Control List (CCL);
2.) Adds new license requirements for items destined for a supercomputer or
semiconductor development or production end use in the PRC;
3.) Expands the scope of the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) over certain
foreign-produced advanced computing items and foreign produced items for
supercomputer end uses;
4.) Expands the scope of foreign-produced items subject to license requirements to
twenty-eight existing entities on the Entity List that are located in the PRC;
5.) Adds certain semiconductor manufacturing equipment and related items to the CCL;
6.) Adds new license requirements for items destined to a semiconductor fabrication
“facility” in the PRC that fabricates ICs meeting specified. Licenses for facilities owned
by PRC entities will face a “presumption of denial,” and facilities owned by
multinationals will be decided on a case-by-case basis. The relevant thresholds are as
follows:
3
• Logic chips with non-planar transistor architectures (I.e., FinFET or GAAFET) of
16nm or 14nm, or below;
• DRAM memory chips of 18nm half-pitch or less;
• NAND flash memory chips with 128 layers or more.
7.) Restricts the ability of U.S. persons to support the development, or production, of
ICs at certain PRC-located semiconductor fabrication “facilities” without a license;
8.) Adds new license requirements to export items to develop or produce semiconductor
manufacturing equipment and related items; and
9.) Establishes a Temporary General License (TGL) to minimize the short-term impact
on the semiconductor supply chain by allowing specific, limited manufacturing activities
related to items destined for use outside the PRC.
The rule is effective in phases after being filed for Public Inspection with the Federal Register.
The semiconductor manufacturing items restrictions are effective upon filing for Public
Inspection (October 7, 2022), the restrictions on U.S. persons’ ability to support the
development, production, or use of ICs at certain PRC-located semiconductor fabrication
“facilities” is effective five days later (October 12, 2022), and the advanced computing and
supercomputer controls, as well as the other changes in the rule, are effective 14 days later
(October 21, 2022). Additionally, public comments on all of these changes are due to BIS no
later than 60 days from the date of Federal Register publication. The text of the rule is available
on the Federal Register’s website here.
Revisions to BIS’s Unverified List:
BIS is also updating its regulations related to BIS’s Entity List to clarify that a sustained lack of
cooperation by the host government that effectively prevents BIS from determining compliance
with the EAR may lead to the addition of an entity to the Entity List.
The rule provides an example that stipulates that sustained lack of cooperation by a foreign
government that prevents BIS from verifying the bona fides of companies on the Unverified List
(UVL) can result in those parties being moved to the Entity List, if an end-use check is not
timely scheduled and completed. All additions, removals, or revisions to the Entity List are still
subject to the approval of the End-User Review Committee, which is made up of the
Departments of Commerce, State, Defense, and Energy pursuant to existing rules.
The rule adds 31 new entities to the UVL and removes 9 entities that have met relevant
requirements.
Consistent with this regulatory change, Export Enforcement has issued a policy memorandum
Addressing Foreign Government Prevention of End-Use Checks. The memo is available online
here. The policy calls for adding parties to the Unverified List 60 days after checks are requested
but host government inaction prevents their completion, and an additional 60-day process for
adding UVL parties to the Entity List when there is a sustained lack of cooperation by a host
government to facilitate completion of the checks.

Text of the rule, which includes the list of parties added and removed, is available on the Federal
Register’s website here. The rule takes effect on October 7, 2022.
Additional Background:
The rules announced today are part of the ongoing review of BIS’s export control policies
towards the PRC announced by Under Secretary Estevez during Congressional hearings in July
2022 and follow several regulatory and enforcement actions taken over the past few months
including:
• A series of company-specific restrictions placed in recent months on the trade and
servicing of specific advanced integrated circuits essential for highly capable artificial
intelligence applications.
• Implementation of new multilateral controls on advanced semiconductor and gas turbine
engine technologies.
• Utilizing the Entity List vigorously to address national security and foreign policy
concerns, including adding seven PRC entities in the space, aerospace, and related
technology sectors .
• Employing administrative and criminal enforcement authorities, including to address
illegal military technology exports to the PRC.
BIS’s actions today were taken under the authority of the Export Control Reform Act of 2018
and its implementing regulations, the EAR.
Under these authorities, BIS possesses a variety of tools to control the export of U.S.-origin and
certain foreign-produced commodities, software, and technology as well as specific activities of
U.S. persons, for national security and foreign policy reasons. These tools include issuing federal
regulations, as well as using the licensing and regulatory process to take party-specific actions
