13 Apr 2026 Coastal PVA Technology, Inc.Coastal PVA: 1.7 million USD (suspended) for brushes sold to SMIC – without an export compliance programme €1.45m
The Californian manufacturer of PVA brushes for wafer cleaning sold goods worth around 400,000 USD on 18 occasions between 2021 and 2024 via two Chinese distributors to SMIC Beijing and SMIC North, both on the Entity List (the US export control list of restricted parties). The company had no formal export compliance rules; the penalty of 1.7 million USD is suspended for one year owing to limited ability to pay and will be waived if training and an internal audit are completed on time.
Obtain a licence even for unlisted everyday goods (EAR99) when the end customer is on the Entity List – without end-customer screening, routing sales through distributors does not help.
Export controls for EAR99 goods and deliveries via distributors
Missing or inadequate training played a role in the decision.
