Summary
The U.S. says some paper plates from Thailand are being sold here for less than they should be, which isn’t fair. This means importers of these plates might face extra costs soon to level the playing field. The decision covers sales from January to December 2023 and could affect prices and availability in stores.

Importers May Face Extra Costs
The U.S. Department of Commerce found that certain paper plates from Thailand were sold in the United States at less than fair value for January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023. If you import these paper plates, you may face extra costs soon to address the unfair pricing.
Store Prices and Availability Could Change
