U.S. Keeps Tariffs on Chinese Crepe Paper Alive
Published Date: 7/24/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. government is keeping the special tax (called an antidumping duty) on crepe paper products from China because stopping it could hurt American businesses. This means importers will still pay extra fees starting July 14, 2026, to keep things fair for U.S. makers. If you buy or sell this crepe paper, get ready for these rules to stick around!

Importers Keep Paying Antidumping Duties
If you import crepe paper from the People’s Republic of China, U.S. Customs and Border Protection will continue to collect antidumping (AD) cash deposits at the rates in effect at the time your goods enter the United States. This continuation is effective July 14, 2026, so importers should expect extra duties to remain in place on those entries after that date.
Which Crepe Paper Products Are Covered
The Order covers 'certain crepe paper' with a basis weight not exceeding 29 grams per square meter prior to being creped, including items that may be flame-proofed, dyed, printed, or packaged as streamers in roll form. The notice lists possible HTSUS subheadings (for example: 4802.30; 4802.54; 4802.61; 4802.62; 4802.69; 4804.39; 4806.40; 4808.30; 4808.90; 4811.90; 4818.90; 4823.90; and 9505.90.40) to help classify subject merchandise for customs purposes.
