The US Commerce Department said on 19 November 2025 that it approved exports of up to 35,000 Nvidia Blackwell chips each to Saudi Arabia's HUMAIN and the UAE's G42. The approvals carry rigorous security and reporting requirements, monitored by the Bureau of Industry and Security. The decision removed a key constraint on HUMAIN's compute plans, which had depended on US export licenses.
