Forged Steel Fittings From India and South Korea; Notice of Commission Determination To Conduct Full Five-Year Reviews

Brief takeaway: The ITC will conduct full five-year (sunset) reviews on existing duty orders covering forged steel fittings from India and South Korea, which may affect whether those orders continue.

What changed: According to the notice, the Commission will proceed with full reviews under the Tariff Act of 1930 to determine whether revoking the countervailing duty order on forged steel fittings from India, and the antidumping duty orders on such fittings from India and South Korea, would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury. The notice states that a schedule for the reviews will be established and announced later.

Who's affected: The notice names forged steel fittings as the product, and cites India and South Korea as the countries of origin. It references an existing countervailing duty order (India) and antidumping duty orders (India and South Korea). Specific HTS codes are not stated in this notice.

What to review:
- Review whether your imported products fall within the description of forged steel fittings from India or South Korea covered by these orders.
- Confirm with your broker the existing antidumping and countervailing duty case numbers and current rates that may apply.
- Check for the review schedule and any future ITC determination that could continue or revoke the orders.
- Review your sourcing and origin documentation for affected fittings.
