Hanoi (VNA) – The US Department of Commerce (DOC) haslaunched a second sunset review of an order imposing anti-dumping duties onwind tower products imported from Vietnam, according to the Trade Remedies Authority of Vietnam (TRAV)under the Ministryof Trade and Industry.

Theproduct subject to an investigation is a wind tower coded HS 7308.20.0020 and8502.31.0000. The DOC initiated an anti-dumping probe into wind towers importedfrom the country back in 2012, duly imposing duties of between 51.54% and58.54% in 2013.

According to the TRAV, the sunset review is conducted every five years. If the review results show that stopping the imposition of anti-dumping duties could lead to the continuation or recurrence of dumping practices that cause significant damage to the US manufacturing industry, the tariff order will be applied for an additional five years.

To ensure their legitimate interests for businesses, the TRAV recommendsrelevant manufacturers and exporters study USregulations and review procedures, while fully complying with the requirements of the US investigationagency, and closely coordinating with the TRAV throughout the case's process./.
