8 Key Facts About Antidumping and Countervailing Duties Protecting U.S. workers and domestic manufacturing from unfairly priced imports. Maintaining the United States’ manufacturing base has received heightened recognition from the White House and Congress in recent years. This has opened the door for domestic manufacturers to fight back against unfair import competition. Now, with the help of experienced and aggressive AD/CVD counsel, U.S. manufacturers are finally getting the relief they deserve. Know the Numbers For any domestic producer facing low priced import competition and considering action, here are 8 facts that you need to know. Importing & Trade Trends The U.S. imported $506.4 billion of goods from China in 2021, up 16.5% from the prior year. The current Chinese trade deficit of $355.3 billion continues to steadily rise. The most recent report from the U.S. government indicates that $18.2 billion worth of imports were subject to antidumping (AD) or countervailing duty (CVD) orders. The AD/CVD Opportunity Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is currently enforcing over 660 AD/CVD orders – this figure continues to grow. AD/CVD investigations are time efficient and cannot take longer than 13 months to complete. Cash deposits on imports can begin within 4 months of filing petitions – getting your business fast relief.
