Spanish Olives Get Hit: U.S. Slaps Extra Duties for Unfair Subsidies
Published Date: 6/13/2025
Notice
Summary
The U.S. checked if Spanish olive producers got unfair help from their government in 2022 and found they did. Because of this, some extra fees (called countervailing duties) will apply to those olives when they come into the U.S. This means importers might pay more starting now to keep things fair for American businesses.

Extra Duties on Spanish Ripe Olives
The Department of Commerce found that certain exporters and producers of ripe olives from Spain received countervailable subsidies during January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022. Because of that finding, countervailing duties will apply to those ripe olive imports when they enter the United States, so importers of those olives may pay extra fees.
