Source: The RegisterAlso reported by Export Compliance Daily

The Dutch government announced on 6 September 2024, in force the next day, that ASML must apply to it for licences to export TWINSCAN NXT:1970i and 1980i immersion lithography systems, which had been licensed by the US. ASML said the change added no new restrictions beyond those in place and would not affect its 2024 outlook.

Why it matters

Licences for these DUV tools, sought by Chinese chipmakers, now come from the Dutch government, which took over control the US had held.
