Aluminum Extrusions: New Third Country Antidumping/Countervailing Duty Cases for Canada, Mexico, and Thailand
Importers should be aware that there are now related third-country cases for merchandise from Canada and Mexico that contain aluminum components extruded in China. Certain goods from these countries may now “flag” for possible AD/CVD for aluminum extrusions from China. If merchandise from Canada or Mexico contains aluminum components extruded in China that were further processed or assembled in Canada or Mexico, the aluminum extrusion portion may be subject to AD/CVD under the cases below.
Canada Third Country Case (China): A122-158/C122-159
Mexico Third Country Case (China): A201-158/C201-159
There is also a third country case covering goods from China containing aluminum extruded in Thailand, and it is possible that there will be more to come.

On May 7, 2024, the U.S. Department of Commerce issued its preliminary affirmative determination on antidumping duties (ADD) for imports of aluminum extrusions from the following 14 countries.
The scope of the orders is broad and includes “aluminum extrusions contained in merchandise that is a part or subassembly of a larger whole.” It also covers aluminum extrusions that have been further processed in a third country prior to export to the U.S., including certain finishing and fabrication processes as well as assembly with other aluminum extrusion components or with non-aluminum extrusion components.
