Expedited five-year review of China duties
If you import, manufacture, or buy malleable iron pipe fittings from China, the U.S. International Trade Commission has scheduled an expedited five-year review under the Tariff Act of 1930 to decide whether to revoke the antidumping duty order. That review could lead to changes in trade rules or costs for importers, manufacturers, and buyers. Affected parties should watch for updates during the expedited process.
