The United States International Trade Commission announced the scheduling of expedited reviews concerning antidumping and countervailing duties on quartz surface products from China. These reviews aim to assess if lifting these duties would likely result in continued or new harm to the domestic industry. Stakeholders are invited to submit comments by December 26, 2024, regarding what the Commission's decision should be. The Commission has also decided to extend the review period by up to 90 days due to the complexity of the reviews.

The U.S. Department of Commerce and the International Trade Commission decided to continue imposing antidumping and countervailing duties on quartz surface products from China. These actions are intended to prevent dumping and unfair subsidies that could harm U.S. businesses. The rules apply to quartz surface products such as countertops and tiles, while excluding materials like granite and marble. Customs will keep charging existing duty rates on imports, with these orders effective as of January 24, 2025.

The Department of Commerce has decided to cancel the administrative review of the countervailing duty order for certain quartz surface products from China. This decision affects the review period from September 21, 2018, to December 31, 2019. The cancellation is due to all parties withdrawing their requests for the review on time, with no new requests from others. As a result, countervailing duties will be assessed based on the original estimated duty rates.
