Scope text

Legally operative description of covered merchandise from the Federal Register

The merchandise covered by this order are certain wind towers, whether or not tapered, and sections thereof. Certain wind towers are designed to support the nacelle and rotor blades in a wind turbine with a minimum rated electrical power generation capacity in excess of 100 kilowatts and with a minimum height of 50 meters measured from the base of the tower to the bottom of the nacelle (i.e., where the top of the tower and nacelle are joined) when fully assembled. A wind tower section consists of, at a minimum, multiple steel plates rolled into cylindrical or conical shapes and welded together (or otherwise attached) to form a steel shell, regardless of coating, end-finish, painting, treatment, or method of manufacture, and with or without flanges, doors, or internal or external components (e.g., flooring/decking, ladders, lifts, electrical buss boxes, electrical cabling, conduit, cable harness for nacelle generator, interior lighting, tool and storage lockers) attached to the wind tower section. Several wind tower sections are normally required to form a completed wind tower. Wind towers and sections thereof are included within the scope whether or not they are joined with nonsubject merchandise, such as nacelles or rotor blades, and whether or not they have internal or external components attached to the subject merchandise. Specifically excluded from the scope are nacelles and rotor blades, regardless of whether they are attached to the wind tower. Also excluded are any internal or external components which are not attached to the wind towers or sections thereof.

Frequently asked questions

What is AD/CVD case A-552-814?

A-552-814 is a U.S. antidumping duty (AD) order on utility scale wind towers from Vietnam, issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce. It is part of the trade-remedy regime that levies cash deposits at entry on imports found to be sold below fair value (AD) or to benefit from foreign government subsidies (CVD).

What is the deposit rate for A-552-814?

The country-wide cash deposit rate for A-552-814 is 58.54%. This rate applies to importers of non-listed manufacturers/exporters from Vietnam.

When did A-552-814 take effect, and is it still active?

How do I check if my shipment falls within the scope of A-552-814?

Two factors determine scope: (1) the product's HTS code(s) and physical characteristics — covered codes are listed on this page (1 flagged); and (2) the product's country of origin — this order applies to imports from Vietnam. 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.

What HTS codes are covered by A-552-814?

A-552-814 flags 1 HTS code in Tandom's catalog. The full list is shown on this page. HTS coverage alone does not guarantee scope — physical-characteristic exclusions in the scope text may carve out specific products.

Where is the official Federal Register notice for A-552-814?

The official Federal Register citation for A-552-814 is 2013-03725. The link is on this page; clicking it opens the canonical FR document on federalregister.gov, which carries the legally operative text — scope, rates, exclusions, and effective dates.
