HA NOI (Biz Hub) — The US Department of Commerce (DoC) has decided to increase anti-dumping duties on tra fish imported from Viet Nam by an additional US$0.52 to $1.29 per kilo, said the Viet Nam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP).
Association secretary Truong Dinh Hoe said the tax hike was made after the US checked errors in the calculation of the previous tax, saying that the increase was consistent with the calculated data.
In March, the US imposed a high tax rate of $0.77 per kilo on Vietnamese tra fish. It chose Indonesia as the sole benchmark country to calculate the anti-dumping rate, VASEP said. — VNS
