The Dutch government on Friday announced new rules restricting exports of certain advanced semiconductor equipment, a move that comes amid U.S. pressure on its allies to curb sales of high-tech components to China.

Schreinemacher added only a "very limited" number of companies and product models would be affected. China was not named., a Dutch company that is a key equipment supplier to computer chip makers, said in reaction it would not change its financial guidance as a result of the new rules. The rules, which will require companies that make advanced chipmaking equipment to seek a licence before they can export it, are expected to go into effect on Sept. 1.The introduction of the list is the result of a high-level agreement between the U.S. and two allies with strong chip equipment industries - The Netherlands and Japan - to tighten restrictions as Washington seeks to hobble Beijing's ability to make its own chips.
ASML, Europe's largest technology company, repeated a March statement indicating the top section of models of its second most advanced "DUV" product line, which are used to manufacture computer chips, would need a licence. It named its 2000 series "and subsequent" models and said it did not expect the rules to have a material impact on its financial forecasts. ASML's most advanced EUV machines have never been shipped to China.
