US to impose antidumping tax on bags
The US Department of Commerce (DOC) is expected to impose antidumping duties on imports of plastic bags from Viet Nam, Taiwan and Indonesia before the end of May.
The US International Trade Commission (USITC) last week determined that the US’s domestic industry was threatened by imports of polyethylene retail carrier bags from Viet Nam, Taiwan and Indonesia.
Plastic bag producers in Viet Nam said they planned to stop exporting carrier bags to the US and seek alternative export markets.
