China's Tetrahydrofurfuryl Alcohol Taxed: U.S. Brewers Cheer On

## Summary

The U.S. government decided to keep special taxes on tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol imported from China because stopping them could hurt American businesses. This means importers from China will still pay extra fees starting April 30, 2026, helping protect U.S. companies from unfair pricing. So, if you’re involved in this trade, expect these rules and costs to stick around for now.

## Abstract

As a result of the determinations by the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) and the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) that revocation of the antidumping duty (AD) order on tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol from the People's Republic of China (China) would likely lead to the continuation or recurrence of dumping and material injury to an industry in the United States, Commerce is publishing a notice of continuation of this AD order.

## Effects PRIA read

- Importers Must Keep Paying AD Deposits: cost, medium. If you import tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol (THFA) from China, U.S. Customs and Border Protection will continue to collect antidumping (AD) cash deposits at the rates in effect at the time of entry for all imports of the subject merchandise. This continuation is effective April 30, 2026.
- U.S. THFA Makers Protected from Dumping: benefit, medium. The Department of Commerce and the U.S. International Trade Commission found that revoking the antidumping order would likely lead to dumping and material injury to a U.S. industry, so the AD order on THFA from China will continue. The continuation is intended to protect U.S. producers and is effec…
- Product Scope and Customs Classification: benefit, low. The Order covers tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol (THFA), chemical formula C5H10O2, described as a clear, water-white to pale yellow liquid, and is classifiable under HTSUS subheading 2932.13.00.00. Commerce's written description of the merchandise is dispositive for determining coverage.
