TAIPEI -- Apple has asked suppliers to ensure that shipments from
Taiwan to China strictly comply with Chinese customs regulations
after a recent visit by senior U.S. lawmaker Nancy Pelosi to Taipei
stoked fears of rising trade barriers.

Apple told suppliers on Friday that China has started strictly
enforcing a long-standing rule that Taiwanese-made parts and
components must be labeled as being made either in "Taiwan, China" or
"Chinese Taipei," sources familiar with the matter told Nikkei Asia,
language that indicates the island is part of China.
