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.

What is the duty rate on prestressed concrete steel wire strand from India?
When the orders were issued, the rate for exporters not individually named (the "all-others" rate) was 83.65% for the AD order.

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.
