Fresh Tomatoes From Mexico; Institution and Scheduling of Review Investigation Concerning the Commission's Affirmative Determination in Investigation No. 731-TA-747 (Final), Fresh Tomatoes From Mexico

Brief takeaway: The U.S. International Trade Commission has opened a review to decide whether ending the antidumping duty order on fresh tomatoes from Mexico could again harm the domestic industry, so the order remains a live issue for importers of these goods.

What changed: According to the notice, the Commission has instituted an investigation under section 751(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930 to review its earlier affirmative determination in investigation No. 731-TA-747 (Final). The notice states the purpose is to determine whether revocation of the antidumping duty order on fresh tomatoes from Mexico is likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to a U.S. industry.

Who's affected: The notice names fresh tomatoes from Mexico, which it cites as provided for in heading 0702.00 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule. The country of origin named is Mexico.

What to review:
- Review whether your imported product falls within HTS heading 0702.00 as described in the notice.
- Confirm with your customs broker whether the existing antidumping duty order currently applies to your entries.
- Check the country of origin of your tomatoes against the Mexico origin cited in the notice.
- Confirm the investigation's schedule and any participation deadlines with your broker or trade counsel.
