    The U.S. Department of Commerce has preliminarily found that producers and exporters of thermoformed molded fiber products from Vietnam are receiving unfair financial support from their government, known as countervailable subsidies. This preliminary decision involves critical circumstances for such imports from several Vietnamese companies and will include a suspension of liquidation for these products as they enter the United States. The Department of Commerce plans to finalize their decision in July 2025 and is seeking input from interested parties. They will also coordinate with the U.S. International Trade Commission to determine if these imports are harming U.S. industries.

    The Department of Commerce has completed its review of antidumping duties on uncovered innerspring units from Vietnam for the period from December 1, 2018, to November 30, 2019.
