The Commerce Department’s International Trade Administration published notice of its determination July 20 in the Federal Register.

Thirty-seven companies were found to have failed to cooperate or failed to respond to the agency’s investigation. The Commerce Department ordered US Customs and Border Protection to collect cash deposits from these 37 companies at the China-wide rates of 183% for AD and 23% for CVD.

The Coalition for Fair Trade of Hardwood Plywood brought the circumvention case against imports from Vietnam in 2020 after imports from Vietnam spiked following the imposition of antidumping and countervailing duties on China.
