USITC Votes To Continue Investigations on Hardwood and Decorative Plywood from China, Indonesia, And Vietnam

The U.S. International Trade Commission Commission (Commission or USITC) today determined that there is a reasonable indication that a U.S. industry is materially injured by reason of imports of hardwood and decorative plywood from China, Indonesia, and Vietnam that are allegedly sold in the United States at less than fair value and subsidized by the governments of China, Indonesia, and Vietnam.

Chair Amy A. Karpel and Commissioners David S. Johanson and Jason E. Kearns 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 hardwood and decorative plywood from China, Indonesia, and Vietnam, with its preliminary antidumping duty determinations due on or about October 29, 2025, and its preliminary countervailing duty determinations due on or about August 15, 2025.

The Commission’s public report, Hardwood and Decorative Plywood from China, Indonesia, and Vietnam (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-764-766 and 731-TA-1747-1749 (Preliminary), USITC Publication 5648, July 2025), will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the investigations.

The report will be available by August 11, 2025; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website.
