U.S.-China Trade Sanctions Compliance Risks Intensify: Are You Prepared? The pressure is on. Multinational companies face the complex task of satisfying U.S. export controls and sanctions while incorporating compliance with China’s requirements. As U.S.-China tensions escalate, multinationals are also faced with rethinking their global supply chains, business operations and risk profile. Even as the two powers begin to engage in talks, temporarily bringing down tariffs, both sides continue to ramp up export controls on critical goods and sanctions. While the U.S. clamps down on semiconductor exports, China imposes export controls on rare earth elements and dual use tech, putting pressure on global supply chains in industries like aerospace, motor vehicles, and pharmaceuticals. In March 2025, BIS added over 80 Chinese companies to its Entity List. China responded by publishing regulations to implement its Anti-Foreign Sanctions Law, a major milestone as it develops its own extraterritorial trade control regime. Are you ready for what’s next?
