U.S. Reviews Duties on Tetrahydrofurfuryl Alcohol from China
Estimated reading time: 5–7 minutes
The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) has started a five-year review of the antidumping duty order on tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol from China. This review will decide if ending the antidumping duties would likely hurt U.S. industry again.
The USITC first put duties on imports of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol from China in August 2004. Since then, the order has been kept in place after three other five-year reviews, with the most recent update made in November 2020.
The fourth review started on October 1, 2025. The USITC wants interested parties to send detailed information for its decision. Responses are due by October 31, 2025. Comments on these responses are due by December 11, 2025.
Tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol is the product being reviewed. The country involved is China. The USITC will look at if the U.S. industry making tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol will be hurt if the duties are removed.
Anyone who wants to be a party in this review must file an entry of appearance within 21 days after this notice. The USITC keeps a list of all parties.
People who worked for the Commission in the past can take part in this review, even if they worked on earlier reviews or the original investigation.
