Published Date: 9/2/2025
Notice
Summary
The U.S. is keeping extra taxes on quartz surface products from Türkiye because dropping them could let unfairly cheap imports flood the market again. This means companies making these products in the U.S. stay protected, and the duties will continue without changes. If you import or sell these quartz surfaces, get ready to keep paying these fees for now!
Analyzed Economic Effects

Antidumping Duties Stay on Imports
The Department of Commerce decided to keep the antidumping duties on certain quartz surface products from the Republic of Türkiye. If you import or sell these quartz surfaces, you will continue to pay the existing duties and fees on those imports for now.
U.S. Producers Keep Trade Protection
Commerce found that removing the antidumping order would likely let unfairly cheap quartz surface imports return, so the duties will continue to protect U.S. companies that make these products. If you make quartz surfaces in the United States, this keeps the existing trade protections in place for now.
