The U.S. Department of Commerce has issued a notice to continue the antidumping duty order on steel wire garment hangers imported from China. This decision follows the determination that revoking the order could lead to unfair pricing practices, known as dumping, and harm American industries. This means that U.S. Customs will keep collecting duty deposits on these imports. The order's continuation is effective from January 31, 2025, and is subject to a review every five years to decide if it still needs to be in place.
Simple Explanation
The U.S. government is keeping a rule that makes people pay extra money to bring in clothes hangers from China because stopping it might hurt companies in America. This rule will keep going and be checked every few years to see if they still need it.
