Notice

Summary

The U.S. Department of Commerce is updating its list of foreign government subsidies on certain cheeses that get special low import taxes. Cheese importers and trade watchers should note this update and can share info about subsidies by March 31, 2026. No new subsidy info was reported last quarter, so no changes to duties right now, but staying in the loop could save money later!
