The U.S. Department of Commerce has postponed the preliminary determinations for countervailing duty investigations on imports of Hard Empty Capsules from Brazil, China, India, and Vietnam. Initially due by January 17, 2025, the deadline is now extended to March 24, 2025, to allow more time for a full analysis of responses. This extension follows a request by Lonza Greenwood LLC, the petitioner, who argued that additional time is needed for a thorough review of forthcoming questionnaire responses. The final determinations will be made 75 days after the new preliminary determination date.

The Department of Commerce is delaying the preliminary determinations in its investigations into whether hard empty capsules from Brazil, China, India, and Vietnam are being sold in the U.S. at less-than-fair-value. Originally set for April 2, 2025, the deadline is now postponed to May 22, 2025, due to a request from the petitioner, Lonza Greenwood LLC, which needed more time to gather comprehensive information. The Commerce Department agreed to the postponement because there were no strong reasons to deny it, and it will continue to follow the procedural guidelines outlined in the relevant legal sections.

The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) determined that domestic industries in the U.S. are likely being harmed by imports of hard empty capsules from China, India, and Vietnam, which are being sold at unfairly low prices. Additionally, imports from Brazil pose a threat of material injury due to government subsidies. This triggered the start of final phase investigations, with the USITC collecting more information and preparing for further actions. The investigations were initiated following a petition by Lonza Greenwood LLC, leading to hearings and conferences in November 2024, with determinations filed by December 9, 2024.
