With Tightening Rare Earth Exports, How Can You Secure Neodymium Magnets in Time?

     China imposed new export controls on neodymium magnets containing the key rare earth elements terbium (Tb) and dysprosium (Dy) from April 4, 2025. Under Policy 2025-18, exporters must obtain a license before shipping these products abroad. Since April, China has been tightening export controls on rare earth elements such as dysprosium and titanium. On May 15, customs further tightened restrictions, and further tightening is expected in June. The measures are aimed at protecting national resources and better managing the global rare earth magnets supply.

     Neodymium magnets—made from rare earth elements—are essential components in industries such as renewable energy, electric vehicles, wind turbines, consumer electronics, and defense. As a key application of these restricted materials, the global supply of neodymium magnets is now facing increased uncertainty.

     With the recent policy changes, many overseas buyers are experiencing growing challenges in securing shipments. Export procedures have become more complex, and delays are becoming more common. As a result, companies that rely on neodymium magnets for production or product development are now at greater risk of disruption.

     As a professional neodymium magnet manufacturer and exporter based in China, we want to assure our clients that we maintain stable export channels and can continue to ship products smoothly, even amid the current restrictions. Our team is experienced in handling compliance documentation and ensuring timely customs clearance.

     If your business requires neodymium magnets, we strongly recommend placing your orders as soon as possible. Early action will help you:

Secure current pricing before potential cost increases

Ensure timely delivery before further regulations take effect

Avoid production delays caused by future export bottlenecks

     Delaying procurement may result in longer lead times, higher prices, and difficulty in obtaining the specific grades or sizes you need. In the face of evolving export controls, being proactive is the best way to maintain supply chain stability.
