China truck-bed-cover CVD case enters final injury phase with deposits active
Updated · Impact score 74/100 · Confidence 55%
The USITC scheduled the final injury phase for truck bed covers from China after Commerce's preliminary subsidy determination. Preliminary CVD deposits have applied since July 31 at company-specific rates from 8.72% to 100.95%, with a 20.25% all-others rate; the preliminary AD determination remains pending.
Why it matters
Covered entries already face potentially material CVD cash deposits while the final investigations continue. The written scope reaches folding, roll-up, one-piece, and retractable covers plus specified hardware and installation kits, and controls over the HTSUS 8708.29.5160 screening number.
What to check next
Keep CVD entry screening active for China-origin truck bed covers, confirm both producer and exporter against current CBP instructions, and calendar the USITC's October 8 prehearing-brief deadline, October 15 hearing, and October 22 posthearing deadline if your business will participate. Do not apply an AD deposit before Commerce and CBP publish operative instructions.
