The United States Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), an agency of the United States Department of Commerce, identifies items that Huawei and its affiliated companies on the Entity List may produce domestically and internationally using American technology and software. Announced further restrictions. In addition, BIS has newly added 38 Huawei affiliates to the entity list.

BIS also relates to all items subject to the US Export Administration Regulations (EAR) in commercial transactions where Huawei or any other entity on the list of entities is the buyer, interim consignee, ultimate consignee or end user. It also revealed that it imposes licensing requirements on transactions.

According to BIS, these measures will take effect immediately. This will allow Huawei to further prevent attempts to bypass the United States to use American technology, BIS explains.



The new regulations announced by BIS strengthen the export control to Huawei and related companies in May 2020. This regulation amends the rules for direct products by adding restrictions to transactions. Up until now, Huawei has been restricted from obtaining chips manufactured in the United States using American software or technology, but obtaining foreign chips newly developed or manufactured using American software or technology. Will also be limited.

Huawei was forced to stop producing high-end Kirin chips due to US sanctions, but this regulation makes it even more difficult for Huawei to obtain chips for mobile.

``Huawei and its overseas affiliates are expanding efforts to obtain advanced semiconductors developed or produced using American software and technology to meet the Communist Party's policy objectives,'' said Wilbur Ross, Secretary of Commerce. 'On the other hand, because we have restricted access to American technology, Huawei and its affiliates have been able to use third parties to compromise US national security and foreign policy interests. The multi-faceted restrictions demonstrate our continued commitment to thwart Huawei.”

Reuters requested Huawei to comment on this regulation, but no response was received.
