Since Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, Taiwan has announced successive updates to its export control regime to prevent Taiwanese high-tech goods from being illicitly used for military purposes.

On Monday, the economy ministry’s International Trade Administration issued a 60-day review period for planned revisions to its export control list for dual-use items and technology, and another list that covers military items.
