Erythritol — China — C-570-193

An AD/CVD measure concerning erythritol is a trade remedy that may apply to certain imported erythritol products. “AD” means antidumping: it addresses goods allegedly sold in the U.S. at less than normal value. “CVD” means countervailing duty: it addresses goods that allegedly benefit from certain government subsidies. These measures are separate from ordinary customs duty and may involve additional financial requirements.

The measure typically affects U.S. importers, manufacturers, distributors, and others responsible for entry of covered products from specified countries or producers. Whether an erythritol shipment is covered depends on the legal scope, including the product’s composition, form, packaging, country of origin, exporting producer, and entry details—not just the product name or tariff classification. Importers should review the official scope and consult a customs broker or trade lawyer when coverage is uncertain.

What to check

• Read the official scope language and compare it with the product’s ingredients, purity, physical form, and packaging.
• Confirm the product’s country of origin, exporting producer, and manufacturer; AD/CVD coverage can vary by these details.
• Check the applicable Harmonized Tariff Schedule classification, but do not treat the tariff code alone as proof that the product is covered or excluded.
• Ask your customs broker to review entry filing, cash-deposit, bonding, certification, and importer-of-record requirements.
• Keep supplier records, production details, origin documents, and product specifications that support your coverage determination.
