Statement on UAE and Saudi chip exports
Nov 20, 2025Today the Commerce Department announced that it has authorized the export of advanced American semiconductors to G42, based in the United Arab Emirates, and Humain, based in Saudi Arabia. Both companies are receiving approvals to purchase the equivalent of up to 35,000 Nvidia Blackwell chips (GB300s).
These approvals will promote continued American AI dominance and global technological leadership – consistent with President Trump’s July 2025 AI Action Plan. The approvals also follow landmark U.S.-Saudi and U.S.-UAE AI partnership agreements.
The approvals are conditioned on both companies meeting rigorous security and reporting requirements. The Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security is engaging with the companies regarding these requirements and will monitor compliance on an ongoing basis.
Beyond today’s announcement, the Commerce Department will continue to support the export of the American AI technology stack to Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and other allies and partners around the globe.
