The orders
Antidumping and countervailing duty orders
The all-others rate applies to Indian producers and exporters without their own rate. It is the rate printed when the order was issued; later administrative reviews set new, company-specific rates.
| Type | Case number | Order date | All-others rate at order | Next sunset |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Antidumping (AD) | A-533-843 | 28 Sept 2006 | See the order notice | 1 Jul 2028 |
| Countervailing (CVD) | C-533-844 | 28 Sept 2006 | See the order notice | 1 Jul 2028 |
For Indian exporters
What this means for your shipments
- Your US buyer pays. The importer of record posts a cash deposit at the AD/CVD rate when the goods enter the US, on top of normal duty.
- The rate depends on who made and sold the goods. Companies reviewed by Commerce get their own rate; everyone else gets the all-others rate.
- The entry is filed differently. The customs broker files it as an AD/CVD entry and quotes the case number, so share the producer and exporter names with your buyer.
- Rates can change every year. Interested parties can ask for an administrative review in the order's anniversary month.

Questions
Lined Paper Products from India: FAQs
Is there anti-dumping duty on lined paper products from India?
Yes. Imports of lined paper products from India are subject to an antidumping duty order (A-533-843, since 28 Sept 2006) and a countervailing duty order (C-533-844, since 28 Sept 2006), according to the U.S. International Trade Administration's list of orders in force as of 18 Sept 2026.
Who pays the anti-dumping duty, the Indian exporter or the US importer?
The US importer of record. It pays a cash deposit at the AD/CVD rate when the goods enter the US, and the final amount is settled when Commerce completes its review. In practice the duty shapes the price the US buyer can pay, so it matters to the Indian exporter too.
When can the orders on lined paper products from India end?
Orders are reviewed every five years in a "sunset review". The next one for lined paper products from India is due to start in Jul 2028. Until an order is revoked, it stays in force.
