The Department of Commerce has issued a countervailing duty order on wood mouldings and millwork products from China due to the determination that these subsidized imports harm an industry in the United States. As of February 16, 2021, U.S. Customs and Border Protection is instructed to assess duties on these products for entries made after June 12, 2020, but not between October 10, 2020, and the publication date of the final determination, due to a suspension lapse. The order covers various wood products, except specific exclusions like certain furnishings and products already subject to other countervailing duty orders.
Simple Explanation
The U.S. government decided that certain wooden parts from China were being sold too cheaply and hurting American companies, so now they must pay extra fees when they come into the United States. But, this doesn't apply to all wooden items, just some specific ones.
