Chairman John Moolenaar has urged the US Bureau of Industry and Security to clarify that the Foundry Due Diligence Rule remains active to prevent AI chip exports loopholes that have allowed Chinese firms like Huawei to obtain controlled chips through front companies.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Semiconductors, and 1 source has reported it.

◆ The Wire takeaway

The US government’s move to close loopholes in AI chip export rules signals stricter scrutiny on semiconductor supply chains tied to China. You must tighten customer checks and compliance now or risk losing access to US-made AI chip components.
