    The United States International Trade Commission (ITC) decided that getting rid of antidumping duty orders on silicomanganese from India, Kazakhstan, and Venezuela would likely cause harm to a U.S. industry. The ITC began these reviews on May 1, 2024, and chose to do expedited reviews in August 2024. They completed these determinations by December 4, 2024, concluding that the antidumping orders should stay in place to protect U.S. industry. This decision is documented in the ITC's publication titled Silicomanganese from India, Kazakhstan, and Venezuela: Investigation Nos. 731-TA-929-931 (Fourth Review).

    The U.S. Department of Commerce and the International Trade Commission have decided to continue the antidumping duty orders on silicomanganese from India, Kazakhstan, and Venezuela. This decision was made because ending these orders could lead to increased dumping and harm to U.S. industries. Silicomanganese is mainly used in steel production and the continuation means U.S. Customs will keep collecting duties on these imports. The effective date for this decision is December 10, 2024.

    The U.S. Department of Commerce has concluded that ferrosilicon from Kazakhstan is likely being sold at less than fair value in the U.S. market during 2023. Despite finding that critical circumstances do not exist for certain companies, they will continue to suspend liquidation of these goods and require cash deposits for antidumping duties. The U.S. International Trade Commission will make a final decision on whether these imports have injured the domestic industry within 45 days. If such injury is confirmed, duties will be enforced; otherwise, all provisional duties will be refunded.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. government found that some metal from Kazakhstan is being sold for cheap in America, which might hurt local businesses. They will keep an eye on these sales and decide if taxes should be added to make things fair.
