🇬🇧 English

The U.S. Department of Commerce has concluded its annual administrative review of antidumping duties applied to citric acid and certain citrate salts imported from the People's Republic of China. The review covered the period of May 1, 2023 through April 30, 2024. Commerce determined that RZBC Group Co., Ltd., RZBC Co., Ltd., RZBC Import & Export Co., Ltd. (RZBC IE), and RZBC (Juxian) Co., Ltd. — collectively referred to as RZBC — did not sell subject merchandise in the United States at prices below normal value during the review period. This finding means RZBC is not subject to additional antidumping duty margins for this period. This determination is significant for U.S. importers and buyers of citric acid sourced from RZBC-affiliated entities, as it confirms that no dumping occurred and cash deposit rates or duty assessments for entries during this POR will reflect a zero or de minimis margin. The antidumping order on Chinese citric acid remains in place for other producers/exporters not covered by this finding.
