Importers Face Duties on Türkiye Brake Drums
The Department of Commerce found that producers and exporters of certain brake drums from the Republic of Türkiye received countervailable subsidies. As a result, extra import taxes (countervailing duties) will apply to those brake drums, meaning importers of these parts will have to pay more; the investigation covered January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023.
U.S. Producers Shielded from Subsidized Imports
The final affirmative countervailing duty determination is intended to address unfair government subsidies and to protect American businesses from subsidized imports of certain brake drums from Türkiye. The action supports U.S. producers by imposing duties on those imports; the period of investigation was January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023.
