According to the Trade Remedies Department ( Ministry of Industry and Trade ), the US Department of Commerce (DOC) recently published a notice regarding an administrative review of certain Vietnamese export products currently subject to anti-dumping/countervailing duties.

Specifically, imported paper shopping bags (Certain Paper Shopping Bags) exported from Vietnam are subject to anti-dumping duties. Case code: A-552-836. Review period: January 3, 2024 - June 30, 2025.

Welded Stainless Pressure Pipes exported from Vietnam are subject to anti-dumping duties: Case Code: A-552-816. Review Period: July 1, 2024 - June 30, 2025.

Vietnamese exports of light truck tires (Passenger Vehicles & Light Trucks Tires) are subject to countervailing duties, case code: C-552-829. Review period: January 1, 2024 - December 31, 2024.

The Trade Remedies Department stated that interested parties have 30 days from the date of the notice of review (July 30, 2025) to register their list of interested parties in the case and submit a review request before July 31, 2025.

If by July 31st, the U.S. Department of Commerce does not receive a request for review of shipments subject to a tariff order, the Department of Commerce will notify the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to proceed with the settlement of the previously deposited funds.

According to regulations, within 35 days of the notice initiating the review in the Federal Register (expected August 4th), the U.S. Department of Commerce will select businesses to be mandatory respondents in the cases based on data from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

The U.S. Department of Commerce may also issue a Quantity and Value questionnaire to select mandatory respondents. Additionally, within 90 days of the date of the initiation notice, parties may withdraw their request for review (scheduled for September 28, 2025), which may be extended.

The U.S. Department of Commerce's decision on whether to extend the 90-day deadline will be made on a case-by-case basis.

In addition, to be eligible for the individual tax rate, businesses must submit an application for the individual tax rate within 21 days of the date of the notice initiating the review (expected July 21, 2025).

If a business does not apply for an individual tariff rate and is not selected as a mandatory respondent, it may be subject to a nationwide tariff rate. The U.S. Department of Commerce will also require parties to provide information to select an alternative valuation country for Vietnam.

To ensure the legitimate interests of businesses, the Trade Remedies Department recommends that businesses producing/exporting related products continue to update on developments in the case; fully and correctly comply with the requirements of the US investigating authority, and cooperate closely with the Trade Remedies Department throughout the entire process.
