    U.S. Department of Defense Chinese military-company designation

    The U.S. Department of Defense added Hesai to its list of Chinese military companies in January 2024. Hesai sued in May, arguing that the action lacked adequate notice, evidence, explanation, and opportunity for response. The company was removed in August after the Department concluded it did not meet the applicable legal criteria, then relisted in October on the basis of new information. Hesai continued its litigation and later appealed a federal ruling upholding the designation.
