Twist Ties From China; Notice of Commission Determination To Conduct Full Five-Year Reviews

Brief takeaway: The ITC is conducting full five-year (sunset) reviews to decide whether the existing antidumping and countervailing duty orders on twist ties from China should stay in place, so those duties remain in effect for now.

What changed: According to the notice, the Commission announced it will proceed with full reviews under the Tariff Act of 1930 to determine whether revoking the countervailing and antidumping duty orders on twist ties from China would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury. The notice states a schedule for the reviews will be established and announced later.

Who's affected: The notice names twist ties from China (country of origin China) as the subject merchandise covered by the existing antidumping and countervailing duty orders. The notice does not specify HTS codes.

What to review:
- Review whether products you import may fall within the scope of the existing antidumping/countervailing duty orders on twist ties from China.
- Confirm with your licensed customs broker whether current AD/CVD duties continue to apply to your goods while the reviews proceed.
- Check for the future notice announcing the review schedule and any opportunity to participate.
- Review your product classification and country-of-origin records against the order's stated scope.
