5 Aug 2026 Everlight Electronics Co., Ltd. und Everlight Americas, Inc.Everlight: 5.15 million USD – Chinese LEDs declared as Taiwanese via Taiwan €4.46m
The Taiwanese LED manufacturer and its Texas subsidiary allegedly transshipped LEDs made in China via Taiwan from 2018 to 2022 and declared them to US customs as being of Taiwanese origin in order to avoid Section 301 tariffs (US punitive tariffs on Chinese goods); in addition, Chinese and Taiwanese chips were not kept separate in production until 2025. The settlement of 5.15 million USD resolves a whistleblower lawsuit brought by a former employee, who receives around 876,000 USD.
Where goods are routed through third countries, document their origin by manufacturing step – repackaging in Taiwan does not turn Chinese goods into Taiwanese ones.
