The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) today determined that there is a reasonable indication that a U.S. industry is materially injured by reason of imports of mattresses from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Burma, India, Italy, Kosovo, Mexico, Philippines, Poland, Slovenia, Spain, and Taiwan that are allegedly sold in the United States at less than fair value and imports of mattresses from Indonesia that are allegedly subsidized by the government of Indonesia.
Chairman David S. Johanson and Commissioners Rhonda K. Schmidtlein, Jason E. Kearns, Randolph J. Stayin, and Amy A. Karpel voted in the affirmative.
As a result of the Commission’s affirmative determinations, the U.S. Department of Commerce will continue its investigations of imports of mattresses from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Burma, India, Indonesia, Italy, Kosovo, Mexico, Philippines, Poland, Slovenia, Spain, and Taiwan, with its preliminary countervailing duty determination due on or about October 23, 2023, and its preliminary antidumping duty determinations due on or about January 4, 2024.
The Commission’s public report Mattresses from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Burma, India, Indonesia, Italy, Kosovo, Mexico, Philippines, Poland, Slovenia, Spain, and Taiwan (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-693 and 731-TA-1629-1640 (Preliminary), USITC Publication 5460, September 2023) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the investigations.
The report will be available by October 20, 2023; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website at: https://www.usitc.gov/commission_publications_library. Read More→
