Scope text

Legally operative description of covered merchandise from the Federal Register

The product covered by these orders is granular polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin. Granular PTFE resin is covered by the scope of these orders whether filled or unfilled, whether or not modified, and whether or not containing co-polymer, additives, pigments, or other materials. Also included is PTFE wet raw polymer. The chemical formula for granular PTFE resin is C2F4, and the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) Registry number is 9002-84-0. Subject merchandise includes material matching the above description that has been finished, packaged, or otherwise processed in a third country, including by filling, modifying, compounding, packaging with another product, or performing any other finishing, packaging, or processing that would not otherwise remove the merchandise from the scope of the orders if performed in the country of manufacture of the granular PTFE resin. The product covered by these orders does not include dispersion or coagulated dispersion (also known as fine powder) PTFE. PTFE further processed into micropowder, having particle size typically ranging from 1 to 25 microns, and a melt-flow rate no less than 0.1 gram/10 minutes, is excluded from the scope of these orders. Granular PTFE resin is classified in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) under subheading 3904.61.0010. Subject merchandise may also be classified under HTSUS subheading 3904.69.5000. Although the HTSUS subheadings and CAS Number are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope is dispositive.

Frequently asked questions

What is AD/CVD case C-533-900?

C-533-900 is a U.S. countervailing duty (CVD) order on granular polytetrafluoroethylene resin from India, 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 C-533-900?

The country-wide cash deposit rate for C-533-900 is 31.89%. This rate applies to importers of non-listed manufacturers/exporters from India. Individual exporters and producers may have lower (or higher) case-specific rates from Commerce administrative reviews — see the manufacturer rates linked from this page where available.

When did C-533-900 take effect, and is it still active?

C-533-900 took effect on September 19, 2025 and is currently in active status — cash deposits apply at entry on every shipment in scope.

How do I check if my shipment falls within the scope of C-533-900?

Two factors determine scope: (1) the product's HTS code(s) and physical characteristics — covered codes are listed on this page (2 flagged); and (2) the product's country of origin — this order applies to imports from India. 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 C-533-900?

C-533-900 flags 2 HTS codes 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 C-533-900?

The official Federal Register citation for C-533-900 is 2022-05419. 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.

What is the companion case for C-533-900?

C-533-900 has a companion case at A-533-899. 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.
