Tariffs Imposed on Vietnamese Corrugated Boxes
Published Date: 7/9/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. International Trade Commission found that American companies making polypropylene corrugated boxes are hurt by cheaper imports from Vietnam sold below fair prices. This means extra duties will be applied to these imports to protect U.S. businesses. The decision follows a 2025 investigation and affects importers starting mid-2026, helping local makers stay competitive.
Analyzed Economic Effects

Antidumping Order Targets Vietnam Boxes
If you import polypropylene corrugated boxes from Vietnam (HTSUS 3923.10.90), the U.S. Department of Commerce found those imports sold at less than fair value and the U.S. International Trade Commission determined on July 6, 2026 that U.S. producers are materially injured. That determination supports an antidumping duty order affecting those imports.
U.S. Box Makers Protected by Ruling
U.S. companies that make polypropylene corrugated boxes were found to be materially injured by imports from Vietnam, and the July 6, 2026 Commission determination supports duties intended to protect those domestic producers. That decision is intended to help U.S. manufacturers compete against lower-priced imports.
