Fatty acids from Malaysia and Indonesia pick up preliminary CVD deposits

Updated · Impact score 74/100 · Confidence 55%

Commerce preliminarily calculated subsidy rates of 4.19%–4.40% for Malaysia and 16.47%–16.48% for Indonesia. Covered entries on or after July 23 are subject to suspension of liquidation and cash deposits at the applicable company or all-others rate.

Why it matters

The scope reaches multiple pure, distilled, mixed, and blended fatty-acid products and third-country processing, with specified exclusions. The tariff numbers are screening aids only; the written scope controls whether deposits apply.

What to check next

Map Malaysia- and Indonesia-origin fatty-acid entries to the written scope, CAS numbers, composition thresholds, and listed HTSUS provisions; match producer and exporter to the applicable deposit rate; and flag Indonesia entries for the separate critical-circumstances decision due by July 29 unless extended.
