On September 30, 2026, a report citing two people familiar with the matter said TSMC was evaluating a possible Texas investment to expand U.S. chip production. The sources said the plans had not been finalized, and TSMC declined to comment.
TSMC was evaluating a possible Texas investment
The report described an investment in Texas as a possibility under evaluation, rather than a finalized project. The proposed expansion would increase TSMC’s U.S. chip production.
How the Texas possibility relates to Arizona
The report said any Texas investment would be additional to TSMC’s reported $265 billion Arizona commitment. It described the company’s current and planned Arizona operations as expected to include 12 fabrication and advanced-packaging facilities and an R&D center.
