🇬🇧 English

The order adds countervailing duties to certain chassis and chassis subassemblies imported into the United States from Mexico and Thailand. The U.S. government found that these imports benefited from subsidies and materially harmed a U.S. industry. Importers, logistics companies, trailer and transport equipment businesses, and buyers using these chassis should expect added duty costs on covered goods. Companies should review product scope, customs classifications, supplier contracts, and pricing for entries from Mexico and Thailand.
