A senior U.S. trade official said only a small quantity of Nvidia’s H200 AI chips have been shipped to China and Hong Kong under a new export license. The shipments follow a December decision allowing Nvidia to sell the advanced H200 chip to China in exchange for the U.S. government taking a 25% cut of sales revenue. Nvidia has sought access to the Chinese market for years but has remained constrained by U.S. export controls amid the ongoing US-China trade and technology dispute.
