    The United States International Trade Commission has determined that U.S. industries may be harmed by paper file folders imported from Cambodia and Sri Lanka. These imports are believed to be sold at prices lower than fair value, with additional subsidies from the Cambodian government. The Commission has started the final phase of investigations on this matter, following initial petitions filed on October 21, 2024, by the Coalition of Domestic Folder Manufacturers. The findings of this preliminary investigation are detailed in the USITC Publication 5570, released in December 2024.

    The U.S. Department of Commerce has made a preliminary decision that producers and exporters in Cambodia are receiving unfair subsidies for paper file folders. To address this, they have suggested applying countervailing duties, which are financial penalties, to level the playing field. The investigation covers all of 2023, and the final decision is scheduled for August 2025, unless delayed. Commerce is asking for public comments and will verify the information before making a final determination.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. government thinks some kids in Cambodia got help making folders that wasn't fair, so they're planning to add extra costs to these folders so things can be fair again. They're checking their work and asking people what they think before making a final choice.
