Two factors determine scope: (1) the product's HTS code(s) and physical characteristics — covered codes are listed on this page (0 flagged); and (2) the product's country of origin — this order applies to imports from Thailand. The order's scope text — also on this page — is the legally binding description. When borderline cases arise, importers can request a formal scope ruling from Commerce. Tandom's lookup tool matches your HTS + origin against every active order in seconds.

A-549-112 has a companion case at C-549-113. AD orders frequently run alongside a CVD order on the same product/country (or vice versa). Both deposits stack on top of base duties — importers pay the full sum of both rates at entry where both orders apply.
Scope text is authoritative; the HTS list is illustrative. Read scope, find past rulings, and file a 19 CFR 351.225 inquiry. Worked example on case A-570-106 (wooden cabinets from China).
