Handel: China plant neue Exportkontrollen für Schlüsseltechnologien
Peking will den Export von KI- und Solartechnik stärker kontrollieren. Die Regeln sind noch in Vorbereitung, doch erste Pflichten gelten schon.
China plans to tighten controls on key technologies, including artificial intelligence, solar power and biomedicine, as it seeks to limit the flow of technical expertise abroad. The trade and science ministries have proposed a draft targeting 40 categories of crucial technologies, with export bans on 14 and mandatory approvals needed for the remaining 26.
The exact implementation timeline remains undecided, but submissions for feedback are due by November 15. However, companies dealing with affected technologies have been required to register since the announcement was made on Friday. The focus is on 23 AI technologies, including big AI models and AI agents that can function largely autonomously.
Additional plans involve manufacturing processes for solar cells and techniques for cell and gene therapies. AI services and ready-made solar modules are exempt from the new export controls, according to the ministry. Solar manufacturing facilities are also targeted, though finished solar panels are not included in the planned monitoring.
