Origins: KR,IN
📌 ETDETA brief — importer impact summary (educational)

Brief takeaway: The ITC has begun five-year (sunset) reviews to decide whether existing duty orders on forged steel fittings from India and South Korea should stay in place, so these duties remain in effect for now.

What changed: According to the notice, the Commission has instituted 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 forged steel fittings from India and South Korea would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury. The notice also states that interested parties are requested to respond by submitting the specified information to the Commission.

Who's affected: The notice names forged steel fittings from India and South Korea. It cites a countervailing duty order and an antidumping duty order for India, and an antidumping duty order for South Korea. Specific HTS codes are not stated in this text.
