Importers Keep Paying Duties
The U.S. is continuing the antidumping duty order on steel wire garment hangers from the People’s Republic of China. Importers of these hangers will continue to pay the extra antidumping duties on those imports. Commerce and the ITC found that removing the order would likely lead to dumping and harm a U.S. industry, so the duties remain in place.
Domestic Hanger Makers Protected

Commerce and the ITC determined that revoking the order would likely cause dumping and material injury, so keeping the duties aims to help U.S. hanger makers remain competitive and protect related jobs.
