Update: Antidumping and countervailing duty investigations launched a year ago on aluminum extrusions from 14 countries will all end without the imposition of AD/CVD, after the International Trade Commission on Oct. 30 announced it didn’t find injury in its investigations on China, Colombia, Ecuador, India, Indonesia, Italy, Malaysia, Mexico, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, United Arab Emirates and Vietnam. A copy of the announcement can be found here: Aluminum Extrusions From China, Colombia, Ecuador, India, Indonesia, Italy, Malaysia, Mexico, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam Do Not Injure U.S. Industry, Says USITC | United States International Trade Commission.

As a result, the Commerce Department will not issue AD/CVD orders on those countries, and all duties already collected during the investigations will be refunded.
