Five-Year Reviews of Hot-Rolled Steel Duties
The U.S. International Trade Commission has scheduled full five‑year reviews of the antidumping and countervailing duty orders on hot‑rolled steel products from China, India, Indonesia, Taiwan, Thailand, and Ukraine. The reviews will decide whether revoking those duties would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury, and the Commission may extend the review period by up to 90 days.
