🇬🇧 English

The notice keeps existing U.S. antidumping and countervailing duty orders in place for commodity matchbooks from India. The Commerce Department and the International Trade Commission found that ending the orders would likely bring back dumping, subsidized imports, and harm to U.S. producers. Importers of covered matchbooks from India should continue to expect duty exposure. U.S. matchbook producers keep the trade protection already in place, and buyers should factor the duties into sourcing and pricing decisions.
