The Malaysian government has implemented a requirement for exporters of US-origin high performance AI chips to obtain a strategic trade permit before shipping to China. This decision stems from concerns about potential trans-shipments to China, given US restrictions on semiconductor exports to the country. The regulations are enforced under the Strategic Trade Act of 2010, which covers various sensitive materials. Non-compliance will result in strict legal repercussions, indicating Malaysia's commitment to uphold international trade obligations and avoid secondary sanctions.
Malaysia requires exporters of "high performance AI chips of US origin" to acquire a strategic trade permit before shipping the semiconductors to China, effective immediately.
The Malaysian Ministry emphasizes that strict legal actions will be taken against individuals or companies who attempt to circumvent export controls or engage in illicit trade activities.
