China Requires Up to 99.2 Percent Cash Deposits on Japanese Chipmaking Chemical Imports
Japanese suppliers still hold nearly 60 Percent of China’s DCS market despite Chinese-made material generally selling for less.
China has implemented new regulations requiring cash deposits of up to 99.2% on Japanese dichlorosilane (DCS) imports, a key chemical for semiconductor manufacturing. This measure, effective September 8th, stems from an anti-dumping investigation preliminarily finding that Japanese suppliers sold DCS below cost. Companies like Denal Silane, Shin-Etsu Chemical, and other Japanese suppliers face these substantial deposit rates, which Chinese importers must pay to customs based on shipment value.
