Commerce Department Proposes Rule to Exempt Imported Emergency Supplies from AD and CVD Duties

The Commerce Department has published in the Federal Register a proposed rule that sets forth procedures to exempt supplies imported into the U.S. for use in emergency relief measures from antidumping and countervailing duties.

Under the proposed regulation, the Secretary of Commerce would consider written requests for a duty waiver on a case-by-case basis. If the Secretary determines it appropriate to waive duties on particular imports of emergency supplies, the Secretary will notify the person who submitted the request and instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to enter merchandise free of antidumping and countervailing duties. If the particular merchandise is used in the U.S. for purposes other than emergency relief work, it may be subject to seizure or other penalties.

There will be a public comment period on this proposal, during which written comments may be submitted to the Department of Commerce. Comments on the proposed rule must be submitted to Commerce by July 24, 2006. After the comment period closes, the Commerce Department will review comments and make a final decision.
