Antidumping Order Revoked for Indonesian Mattresses
In March 2025, the Department of Commerce revoked the antidumping duty order on mattresses from Indonesia after a U.S. Court of International Trade decision found the original action not in harmony with the final determination. This change affects importers and mattress manufacturers who were subject to that order.
Possible Refunds for Paid Mattress Duties
The notice published in March 2025 omitted language about providing refunds to companies affected by the revoked antidumping duty order. Companies that paid those duties may be eligible to receive refunds as a result of the revocation.
