US imposes 123.04% anti-dumping duty on Indian solar imports
Export-sales teams must price US deliveries with a 123.04% duty layer immediately
Change
US Department of Commerce imposed a 123.04% preliminary anti-dumping duty on solar cells and modules from India, with retroactive 90-day suspension of liquidation.
Why it matters
Covered solar imports now carry a 123.04% preliminary duty rate. Combined with prior countervailing duties of over 125%, total tariff burden exceeds 200%. Importers must post cash deposits during the suspension period covering Mundra Solar, Kowa, Premier Energies and others.
Implications
- — Applies if you import solar cells or modules from India into the USA.
- — Customs-entry teams must post cash deposits at the 123.04% rate on covered entries now — non-payment blocks entry processing.
- — Trade-compliance teams must identify entries within the 90-day lookback window now — misclassification risks retroactive duty bills under suspension.
Who is affected
- — Customs-entry teams at US importers of solar cells and modules
- — Trade-compliance teams handling US anti-dumping exposure for solar imports
