I Q F Red Raspberries — Chile — A-337-806

“I Q F Red Raspberries” generally refers to red raspberries that are individually quick frozen (IQF). An AD/CVD measure may apply to covered merchandise imported from specified countries. “AD” means antidumping duties, which address imports sold at allegedly unfairly low prices. “CVD” means countervailing duties, which address benefits that a foreign government allegedly provided to producers or exporters.

These measures typically affect importers, foreign exporters, producers, and sometimes related parties involved in the covered transactions. They matter because AD/CVD duties are separate from ordinary customs duty and may create additional payment, entry-documentation, recordkeeping, and liability requirements. The product name alone does not determine coverage: the official scope description, tariff classification, country of origin, exporter or producer information, and any listed exclusions must be checked. A customs broker or trade attorney may be needed for a binding scope or classification determination.

What to check

• Read the official scope language and compare the product’s ingredients, form, packaging, processing, and IQF characteristics; do not rely on the product title alone.
• Confirm the country of origin and identify the actual foreign producer and exporter, because AD/CVD treatment can vary by origin and by company.
• Review the applicable tariff classification, including any statistical suffix, and verify it against the official measure and current customs guidance.
• Ask your customs broker to check whether an AD/CVD case number, cash-deposit requirement, certification, or special entry data is required.
• Keep purchase orders, invoices, production records, origin documents, and product specifications that support the scope and company-specific information reported at entry.
