United States Department of Commerce Releases Final Review Results on Polyethylene Retail Carrier Bags from China

Estimated reading time: 1–7 minutes

The United States Department of Commerce has released the final results of their review on polyethylene retail carrier bags from China. This review was for the period from August 1, 2024, to July 31, 2025.

Crown Polyethylene Products is part of the China-wide entity. This means they are not eligible for a special rate. The rate for the China-wide entity remains at 77.57 percent. This rate has not changed because no one asked for a review of it.

The department did not change anything from their first review results. Because of this, they did not include any new calculations.

When goods come into the US, there is a cash deposit needed. This deposit will stay until new rules are made. Chinese exporters without a special rate pay 77.57 percent. If a Chinese exporter gave goods to another country’s exporter, that rate applies.

Importers of these bags need to file a certificate before their goods are processed. This tells whether they have already paid any of these charges. Otherwise, they might have to pay them twice.

Lastly, businesses must return private info used in this review. This is important to keep private business info safe. Not doing so can lead to problems with the law.

These results are officially published by the Deputy Assistant Secretary.
