Commerce Cancels Acetone Tariff Review Due to Zero Imports
Published Date: 6/24/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce decided to cancel the review of special import taxes on acetone from Korea for March 2025 to February 2026 because the main companies didn’t actually ship acetone during that time. This means no changes in duties or extra money will happen for these companies right now. The decision took effect on June 24, 2026, keeping things simple and clear for everyone involved.
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.
Cash Deposit Requirements and Duty Assessment Maintained
Commerce stated that no cash deposit rates will change and that current cash deposit requirements shall remain in effect until further notice. Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to assess antidumping duties on appropriate entries at rates equal to the cash deposit required at the time of entry, and intends to issue assessment instructions no earlier than 35 days after publication of this rescission notice (publication date June 24, 2026).
Review Rescinded for Two Korean Producers
Commerce rescinded the antidumping administrative review of acetone from the Republic of Korea for March 1, 2025 through February 28, 2026 because Kumho P&B Chemicals, Inc. and LG Chem, Ltd had no reviewable entries during that period. As a result, there are no changes to duties or additional charges for those companies at this time. The decision is applicable June 24, 2026.
