ITC Keeps Tariffs on Chinese Tetrahydrofurfuryl Alcohol Imports
Published Date: 4/30/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. International Trade Commission decided to keep special taxes on Tetrahydrofurfuryl Alcohol imported from China because removing them could hurt American businesses. This means importers from China will still pay extra fees, protecting U.S. companies for now. The decision was finalized in April 2026 after a quick review started in late 2025.
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.
Importers Keep Antidumping Duties
If you import tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol (THFA) from China, you will continue to pay antidumping duties because the U.S. International Trade Commission decided on April 27, 2026 to keep the existing order in place after a five-year review that began October 1, 2025.
U.S. THFA Producers Remain Protected
If you are a U.S. producer of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, the Commission found on April 27, 2026 that removing the antidumping duty would likely cause material injury, so the duty order remains to protect domestic producers after the expedited review begun October 1, 2025.
