China suspends curbs on some US entities, lifts others

China's Commerce Ministry has announced that it will continue to suspend or remove export-control measures on some US entities from today, in line with the consensus reached during the high-level China-US economic and trade meeting in Stockholm.

The Ministry of Commerce had added 28 US entities to the export-control list on April 4 and 9, 2025, prohibiting the export of dual-use items to them.

On May 14, the ministry announced the suspension of these measures on the 28 US entities for 90 days.

For the 16 US entities added to the list on April 4, the related measures will remain suspended for an additional 90 days, while the measures for the 12 US entities placed on the list on April 9 have been lifted, the ministry said in a statement.

Exporters seeking to supply dual-use items to the listed entities must apply to the ministry in accordance with relevant regulations. Applications will be reviewed under applicable laws, and permissions will be granted if requirements are met, local Chinese media said quoting the ministry.
