U.S. Keeps Tariffs on Chinese Crepe Paper Imports
Published Date: 7/14/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. International Trade Commission decided to keep the extra taxes (antidumping duties) on crepe paper imported from China. They believe removing these taxes would hurt American crepe paper makers soon. This means importers will keep paying these duties, protecting U.S. businesses starting now and going forward.
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.
Importers Keep Paying Duties
If you import crepe paper from China, you will continue to pay the antidumping duties because the U.S. International Trade Commission completed and filed its determination on July 10, 2026 that the duty order will remain in place. The notice says these duties will continue to apply starting now and going forward.
U.S. Crepe Paper Makers Protected
If you make crepe paper in the United States, the antidumping duty order on crepe paper from China remains in effect after the U.S. International Trade Commission's July 10, 2026 determination. The Commission determined that revoking the order would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury, so duties stay in place to protect U.S. producers.
