Is your company on the list? Including non-profit companies! Effective July 1 2026 China’s Counter-Extraterritoriality Regulation (State Council Decree No. 835) is a sweeping legislative framework enacted to block foreign long-arm jurisdiction, such as U.S. sanctions or EU investigations—that Beijing deems unjustified or harmful to Chinese interests. 貴公司在名單上嗎？包括非營利公司在內！ 2026年7月1日起生效的中國《阻斷外國法律與措施不當域外適用辦法》（國務院令第835號），是一項全面的法律框架，旨在阻擋外國長臂管轄——例如美國制裁或歐盟調查——即北京當局認為不當或損害中國利益者。

The law went into effect immediately, creating severe dual-compliance dilemmas for multinational corporations. Starting July 1, China’s newCounter-Extraterritoriality
Regulation takes effect. It gives Beijing the legal power to tine, sue, or sanction any business anywhere in the world that follows US rules targeting Chinese companies.

In simple terms: if an American company stops doing business with a Chinese tech firm because Washington said to — China can now legally punish that American company.

This puts thousands of US businesses in an impossible position. Follow the US government’s orders and face punishment from Beijing. Follow Beijing and break American law.

There is no winning move.
Nearly half of all American companies operating in China already say they have lost sales due to US export controls.
