The U.S. Department of Defense has added prominent Chinese companies, including Tencent, SenseTime, and CATL, to its list of companies with ties to the Chinese military. This move is part of the U.S.'s ongoing effort to restrict the transfer of advanced technology to China, citing national security concerns. Tencent, the world's largest video gaming company, has expressed its intention to challenge this designation.

The U.S. Defense Department has added dozens of Chinese companies, including games and technology company Tencent, artificial intelligence firm SenseTime and the world’s biggest battery maker CATL, to a list of companies it says have ties to China’s military. The U.S. has in recent years sought to restrict sharing of advanced technology, including semiconductors and artificial intelligence, deeming it to be a threat to national security.

The Defense Department updates its list of “Chinese Military Companies,” or CMC list, annually. With the latest revision it includes 134 companies. The National Defense Authorization Act of 2024 bans the Department of Defense from dealing with the designated companies beginning in June 2026.Tencent's Hong Kong-traded shares fell 7.3% on Tuesday and the company said it would “initiate a reconsideration process to correct this mistake,” seek talks with the Defense Department and if need be take legal measures to get it removed from the list. Tencent is the world’s largest video gaming company and operates Chinese messaging platform WeChat
