Published Date: 3/3/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. International Trade Commission decided to keep special taxes on ferrovanadium imports from China and South Africa because removing them could hurt American businesses. This means companies in the U.S. that make ferrovanadium will stay protected from unfairly cheap foreign products. The decision was finalized in early 2026 and affects trade rules and prices going forward.
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.
Antidumping Duties Remain in Place
The U.S. International Trade Commission decided on February 26, 2026 to keep the antidumping duty orders (special taxes) on ferrovanadium imports from China and South Africa. This keeps U.S. ferrovanadium producers protected from what the Commission found to be likely unfairly cheap foreign imports.
Importers Face Continued Special Taxes
Because the antidumping duty orders on ferrovanadium from China and South Africa remain in effect as of February 26, 2026, imports of ferrovanadium from those countries remain subject to special taxes. This affects companies that import or buy ferrovanadium since trade rules and prices for those imports will continue to be governed by those duties.
