U.S. Antidumping and Countervailing Duties on Aluminum Extrusions from China (A-570-967 / C-570-968)

This is an educational summary — NOT a scope determination or filing advice. It does not decide whether your specific goods are covered. Always verify against the latest U.S. Commerce and CBP instructions.

Aluminum extrusions from China may be affected by both a U.S. antidumping order (A-570-967) and a countervailing duty order (C-570-968).

The U.S. maintains both an antidumping (AD) order (A-570-967) and a countervailing duty (CVD) order (C-570-968) on aluminum extrusions from China. Importers of these products should review whether their goods may fall within the scope, since both orders can apply simultaneously and affect cash-deposit requirements at entry.

Scope — simplified screening examples, not full legal scope

The official written scope controls. The examples below are screening references only.

Products that may be covered (examples)
  • Extruded aluminum shapes and profiles (hollow and solid) made from 1-, 3-, or 6-series aluminum alloys may be included
  • Aluminum pipes, tubes, bars, and rods produced by extrusion may be covered
  • Drawn aluminum (extrusions drawn after extrusion) may be included
  • Mill-finished, anodized, painted, powder-coated, brushed, or polished extrusions may be covered
  • Fabricated extrusions that are cut-to-length, machined, drilled, punched, bent, or threaded may be included
  • Extrusions imported as parts for window frames, door frames, solar panels, or curtain walls may be covered
  • Aluminum extrusion subassemblies attached by welding or fasteners may fall within scope
Products that may require separate review or may fall outside this order
  • ?Non-aluminum-extrusion components of subassemblies may be outside the scope
  • ?Finished goods 'kits' as specifically defined in Commerce's scope may be treated differently
  • ?Extrusions made from aluminum alloys outside the 1-, 3-, and 6-series designations may not be covered
  • ?Products not produced by an extrusion process may fall outside scope
  • ?Alloys not meeting the stated composition thresholds (e.g., manganese/magnesium/silicon limits) may be excluded
Scope control: The listed HTS codes are screening references only; Commerce's written scope language controls whether a product is covered, and parts, unfinished, fabricated, or unassembled extrusions may still be covered depending on the scope.

Who it affects

This typically matters for importers of aluminum profiles, tubes, bars, rods, and fabricated extrusion parts of Chinese origin, including components imported for later assembly into windows, doors, solar arrays, curtain walls, or furniture.

What the duty means

Cash deposits are collected at entry and rates vary by exporter/producer and administrative review, and can be high; because both AD (A-570-967) and CVD (C-570-968) orders exist, both types of deposits may apply. A 0% cash-deposit rate is NOT an exemption — the order still applies and entries must be declared.

Importer checklist — how to assess your risk

  • Gather the commercial invoice description and confirm it identifies the product as extruded aluminum
  • Collect product photos and spec sheets showing shape, form, and finish
  • Obtain the alloy series designation and material composition to compare against the 1-, 3-, and 6-series scope thresholds
  • Document the intended use and any fabrication or finishing performed
  • Assemble country-of-origin support and manufacturing records
  • Identify the manufacturer and exporter names and confirm the specific producer/exporter combination
  • Determine the correct HTS classification for screening purposes only
  • Confirm scope questions with a licensed customs broker or trade counsel, and do not rely only on supplier statements
  • Verify the applicable cash-deposit rate against current Commerce results and CBP AD/CVD messages before filing

Risks to watch

  • Circumvention or transshipment findings for goods routed through third countries
  • Scope inquiries that may bring borderline products within the order
  • Using the wrong exporter/producer combination and applying an incorrect deposit rate
  • Misdeclaration or failure to declare, which may lead to penalties and retroactive duties
The same product may be subject to trade-remedy orders from multiple countries, so importers should review each country of origin independently and rely on accurate origin documentation.

FAQ

Is there antidumping duty on aluminum extrusions from China?
There is an antidumping order (A-570-967) and also a countervailing duty order (C-570-968) on aluminum extrusions from China. Whether your specific goods are covered depends on Commerce's written scope, which importers should verify.
Does a 0% deposit rate mean no duty?
No. A 0% cash-deposit rate is not an exemption. The orders still apply, entries must be declared as subject merchandise, and rates may change through administrative reviews.
Are parts or unassembled aluminum extrusions covered?
They may still be covered depending on Commerce's scope. The scope may include fabricated extrusions, extrusion parts for later assembly, and subassemblies; importers should confirm with a licensed broker.
Possible risk
Risk signal: Higher concern if the goods are extruded aluminum profiles, tubes, bars, rods, or fabricated extrusion parts of Chinese origin; a separate review is needed for specific alloys, finished-goods kits, subassemblies, and third-country processing.
Bottom line: Aluminum extrusions from China may be covered by A-570-967 (AD) and C-570-968 (CVD); confirm scope, alloy, origin, exporter/producer identity, and current deposit rates before entry.
Not a scope determination or filing advice — confirm coverage and current deposit rates with a licensed customs broker and the latest Commerce/CBP instructions before entry.
