On January 9, 2020, China's Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) released theRules to Counteract Extraterritorial Application of Foreign Legislation and Other Measures, laying out mechanisms for Chinese citizens, legal persons, or organizations to act when encountering "unjustified extra-territorial application of foreign legislation and other measures." A MOFCOM-led interagency mechanism has subsequently been established to assess if foreign laws and regulations have been unjustifiably applied to Chinese stakeholders where the Chinese side is required to reported and reject such applications.
To help members better understand and navigate through this new legal development, AmCham China is hosting a member-only briefing featuring Professor Qi Huan, Vice Dean of Faculty of International Law at the China University of Political Science and Law, on the Rules' background and implications for businesses.

Event access information will be shared one day before the event takes place. Please register by Monday, January 25, 2:00 PM. For any questions, please email Sihan Qu at squ@amchamchina.org.
