Seventy-six Chinese multilayered wood flooring exporters will pay an anti-dumping margin of 17.37 percent, according to the final anti-dumping review results published in the Federal Register.
The final margins are an increase from the preliminary margins, released Jan. 8, in which the majority of companies would pay a margin of 13.34 percent.
The final anti-dumping margins will affect goods exported between 2013–2014. A total of 107 companies were reviewed. The remaining companies will pay no margins or were determined not to have shipped goods during the review period.
This is the third anti-dumping administrative review in the past six years. The reviews followed a determination by the Department of Commerce in 2011 that Chinese producers and exporters were dumping multilayered wood flooring into the United States at less than fair prices.
Most recently, the final results of the second administrative review, published in August 2015, set margins of 58.54 percent, 13.74 percent and 0 percent for the companies included.
