What Changed

The U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC) gave notice of the scheduling of the final phase of antidumping and countervailing duty investigations (Nos. 701-TA-781-782 and 731-TA-1767-1769) on van-type trailers and subassemblies from Canada, China, and Mexico. The Commission will determine whether a U.S. industry is materially injured or threatened by these imports.

Who/What It Hits

The investigation covers van-type trailers and subassemblies classified under HTS subheadings 8716.39.00 and 8716.90.50. Commerce has preliminarily determined imports are subsidized by the Governments of China and Mexico. No final duty rates have been set in this scheduling notice.

What Importers Should Do

This is a procedural scheduling notice, not a duty order. Importers of covered trailers from Canada, China, or Mexico should monitor the proceeding for Commerce's final determinations and any resulting AD/CVD orders, and assess potential exposure to retroactive duties or cash deposit requirements.
