Commerce Keeps Taxes on Ferrovanadium from China and South Africa
Published Date: 1/8/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce decided to keep the special taxes on ferrovanadium from South Africa and China because dropping them could lead to unfairly low prices again. This means U.S. producers get protection starting January 8, 2026, helping them compete fairly. If you’re in the ferrovanadium business, these rules affect how much you pay and sell.
Analyzed Economic Effects
3 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 2 costs, 0 mixed.
South Africa Duties Remain (116%)
If you import ferrovanadium from the Republic of South Africa, the U.S. Department of Commerce kept the antidumping duty in place effective January 8, 2026. The notice states the magnitude of the dumping margin likely to prevail is up to 116.00 percent, so importers will pay duties at or up to that level on affected shipments.
China Duties Remain (66.71%)
If you import ferrovanadium from the People's Republic of China, the antidumping duty order remains effective January 8, 2026. The notice states the magnitude of the dumping margin likely to prevail is 66.71 percent, so importers will pay duties at or near that level on affected shipments.
U.S. Producers Kept Protection
If you produce ferrovanadium in the United States, Commerce decided the antidumping duty orders remain in place starting January 8, 2026, which the Department says helps U.S. producers compete fairly. The decision is based on a finding that revocation would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping.
