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
Organic Soybean Meal from India: FAQs
Is there anti-dumping duty on organic soybean meal from India?
Yes. Imports of organic soybean meal from India are subject to an antidumping duty order (A-533-901, since 16 May 2022) and a countervailing duty order (C-533-902, since 16 May 2022), according to the U.S. International Trade Administration's list of orders in force as of 18 Sept 2026.
What is the duty rate on organic soybean meal from India?
When the orders were issued, the rate for exporters not individually named (the "all-others" rate) was 3.07% (cash deposit 0.00%) for the AD order and 9.57% for the CVD order. Rates are set per producer and exporter and change after each administrative review, so the rate on a shipment today depends on who made and sold it. Check the latest Federal Register notice.
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 organic soybean meal from India end?
Orders are reviewed every five years in a "sunset review". The next one for organic soybean meal from India is due to start in Apr 2027. Until an order is revoked, it stays in force.
