Reconstructing the Semiconductor Industry Landscape: Opportunities and Challenges of Wafer Fab Location Recognition

Reconstructing the Semiconductor Industry Landscape: Opportunities and Challenges of Wafer Fab Location Recognition

1. Policy Background and Essence of the Rules On April 11, 2025, the China Semiconductor Industry Association issued an urgent notice clarifying that the origin of integrated circuits is determined by the “wafer fab location”. This rule is not a new policy but a reiteration and refinement of the long-standing “four-digit tariff number change principle” … Read more
