Due to the complexity of the case, the review period was extended by up to 90 days.

  • 2024-31349 — Certain Glass Wine Bottles From Chile: Termination of Less-Than-Fair-Value Investigation
    Type:Notice

    Reading Time:about 4 minutes

    The U.S. Department of Commerce has decided to terminate the investigation into allegations that glass wine bottles imported from Chile were being sold at unfairly low prices in the United States. This decision comes after the U.S. Glass Producers Coalition withdrew its petition for antidumping duties. Although some parties opposed this withdrawal, Commerce deemed ending the investigation to be in the public interest. Consequently, U.S. Customs will stop suspending shipments of these bottles and will refund any deposits collected from importers due to the investigation.

    Simple Explanation

    The people in charge decided to stop checking if glass bottles from Chile were being sold too cheaply in the U.S. because the group that asked for the check changed their mind and took back their request. Now, stores will get their money back if they paid extra while waiting to see if the bottles were priced fairly.
