Preliminary Countervailing Duties Imposed on Chinese Hard Empty Capsules

Published Date: 3/31/2025

Notice

Summary

The U.S. government found that companies in China making hard empty capsules are getting unfair financial help from their government. This could lead to extra taxes on these capsules to keep things fair for U.S. businesses. The final decision will line up with related trade checks and could affect prices starting soon.

Analyzed Economic Effects

1 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.

Preliminary Finding Could Trigger Duties

Commerce preliminarily found that producers and exporters in China received countervailable subsidies for hard empty capsules for the period January 1, 2023, through December 31, 2023. That finding could lead to extra taxes called countervailing duties on imports of those capsules, which could help U.S. capsule makers but increase costs for U.S. importers and buyers.
