🪵Postponement of Countervailing Duty Investigations on Plywood
The U.S. Department of Commerce has announced the postponement of preliminary determinations in countervailing duty investigations for hardwood and decorative plywood imports from China, Indonesia, and Vietnam. The extension allows for additional analysis and ensures that the results are thoroughly examined before the deadlines. This decision reflects the complexities of international trade and compliance in the sector.
