U.S. Starts Expedited Review of Wooden Cabinets and Vanities From China
Estimated reading time: 2–3 minutes
The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) has begun expedited five-year reviews of antidumping and countervailing duty orders on wooden cabinets and vanities from China. This announcement was made on July 31, 2025.
The review will decide if ending the orders on these imports would likely cause material injury to U.S. producers again within a reasonable time.
The decision for an expedited process happened after USITC found that only the domestic interested parties gave enough response to the notice of institution, while responses from the foreign side were not enough. No other factors were found to require a full review.
These expedited reviews are being done under section 751(c)(3) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)(3)). More details about the rules can be found in the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR part 201 and part 207).
On July 30, 2025, a staff report with details for these reviews was placed in the nonpublic record for those on the Administrative Protective Order service list. A public version will be released later, following the rules.
Interested parties who provided individually adequate responses—including MasterBrand Cabinets, LLC, and the American Kitchen Cabinet Alliance—may file written comments. All comments must be received by August 7, 2025. Comments cannot include new factual information. Non-parties may also submit short statements by August 7, 2025. If the Department of Commerce extends time for its review, the deadline for comments will be three business days after Commerce’s final decision.
Comments with business proprietary information must follow the requirements in the rules (Sections 201.6, 207.3, and 207.7, among others). All documents must include a certificate of service showing they were shared with all other parties in the review.
The Commission found this review to be extraordinarily complicated and has used its authority to extend the review period by up to 90 days under 19 U.S.C. 1675(c)(5)(B).
These reviews are being done under title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930, and this notice was published to meet requirement in Section 207.62 of the Commission’s rules.
