Analyzed Economic Effects
5 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 3 costs, 2 mixed.
Antidumping Cash Deposits Required
Starting January 2, 2025, U.S. Customs will require cash deposits for estimated antidumping duties on imports of the covered glass wine bottles. The deposits apply to entries described in the notice and are based on company-specific or all-others dumping margins listed by Commerce.
Company-Specific Dumping Margins Set
Commerce set estimated weighted-average dumping margins for named exporters: Fevisa 13.95%, Owens Am�rica 22.68%, and an all-others rate of 16.75%. Several respondents (Glass & Glass, JOCOGLASS, Pavisa Group) received rates of 96.95% based on adverse facts available.
Suspension of Liquidation Continues
Commerce instructed U.S. Customs and Border Protection to continue suspending liquidation of entries of the subject merchandise that were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after August 9, 2024. The suspension remains in effect until further notice.
Products Covered and Exclusions Defined
The rule covers narrow-neck glass wine bottles with nominal capacity of 740–760 milliliters and specified height and diameter ranges, and includes many common wine shapes. Excluded are borosilicate pharmaceutical-type containers meeting U.S. Pharmacopeia Type 1 requirements and glass containers without a finished opening (no finish).
ITC Review Could Reverse Duties
Commerce will notify the U.S. International Trade Commission, which has up to 45 days to decide whether U.S. industry is materially injured. If the ITC finds no injury, the proceeding will end, suspension of liquidation will be lifted, and cash deposits will be refunded.
