Preliminary finding: Chinese erythritol LTFV
The U.S. Department of Commerce preliminarily found that erythritol from the People’s Republic of China was sold in the United States at less than fair value for the period April 1, 2024 through September 30, 2024. This preliminary finding could lead to extra import checks and possible duties that affect importers and U.S. businesses that buy or use erythritol.
Final decision postponed; provisional measures extended
The notice indicates a postponement of the final determination and an extension of provisional measures in the erythritol from China investigation. These procedural steps mean the investigation and any provisional actions tied to imports remain active beyond the preliminary stage for the same period covering April 1, 2024 through September 30, 2024.
