Summary

The U.S. checked sales of aluminum foil from Brazil and found that Companhia Brasileira de Alumínio and CBA Itapissuma Ltda. sold it for less than fair prices between November 2022 and October 2023. Because of this, extra duties (taxes) will apply to their products to keep things fair for U.S. businesses. This means importers should expect changes in costs starting now.

Antidumping Duties on Brazilian Foil

The Department of Commerce found that Companhia Brasileira de Alumínio and CBA Itapissuma Ltda. sold certain aluminum foil from Brazil at less than fair value during November 1, 2022 through October 31, 2023. As a result, extra antidumping duties will apply to imports of that aluminum foil tied to this review.

Importers Should Expect Higher Costs

Importers of the specified aluminum foil from the named Brazilian producers should expect changes in their import costs starting now because extra duties will apply to those products. This change aims to offset the below-market pricing found for the November 1, 2022 through October 31, 2023 review period.
