Five‑Year Review Could Change Acetone Duties
If you import acetone from Belgium, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, or Spain, the U.S. International Trade Commission began full five‑year reviews on February 4, 2025 to decide whether U.S. antidumping duty orders on those imports should be revoked or continued. The Commission’s decision could either keep duties in place (which would tend to raise import costs) or remove them (which would tend to lower import costs); a schedule for the reviews will be announced later.
