No anti-dumping duties to be imposed by the US on aluminum extrusions from Vietnam

The US Department of Commerce (DOC) will not impose anti-dumping duties on aluminum extrusions imported from 14 countries and territories, including Vietnam, the Vietnam News Agency quoted  the Trade Remedies Authority of Vietnam under the Ministry of Industry and Trade as reporting on October 31.

This came after the US International Trade Commission (ITC) on October 30 released its final decision on an anti-dumping investigation concerning aluminum extrusions imported from China, Colombia, Ecuador, India, Indonesia, Italy, Malaysia, Mexico, the Republic of Korea, Taiwan (China), Thailand, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates and Vietnam.

Accordingly, the ITC determined that the US industry was not significantly injured by aluminum extrusions imported from the 14 countries and territories under investigation, although the DOC had previously concluded that their extruded aluminum was dumped or subsidized.

The investigation was initiated by the DOC on October 24, 2023 at the request of the US United Steel, Paper & Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied Industrial & Service Workers International Union, in which Vietnam was only investigated for anti-dumping.
