Hardwood Plywood From Vietnam Circumvents Duties, Says Commerce
The U.S. Department of Commerce recently published its preliminary affirmative determination in its circumvention investigation into hardwood plywood made with Chinese core materials and assembled in Vietnam. In its determination, Commerce found that the multiple types of hardwood plywood it examined should be subject to the substantial antidumping and countervailing duties on hardwood plywood made in China. These duties range as high as 200%.
