President Trump & CBP Aim to Collect Unpaid AD/CVD Duties

On March 31, 2017, President Trump signed an Executive Order (EO) that addressed unpaid anti-dumping and countervailing duties. This new EO, “promotes the efficient and effective administration of U.S. customs and trade laws by establishing enhanced measures to collect duties”.

What are anti-dumping and countervailing duties (AD/CVD)?

Dumping happens when a foreign company exports goods into the U.S. and sells those goods at less than fair market value. This in turn causes “injury to the U.S. industry”. Due to this, U.S. manufacturers or businesses can file a petition with the International Trade Commission (ITC), claiming that it has suffered an injury. Once the ITC finds that evidence of an injury exists, then the Department of Commerce (DOC or the Department) will investigate the claim. If the DOC determines that dumping occurred, then Customs and Border Protection (CBP) can withhold “liquidation of entries” and collect anti-dumping (AD) duties. AD “duties are calculated to bridge the gap back to a fair market value.” […]

31,560 Shipments Were Seized by CBP in 2016 for ONE Reason

Last year, on a typical day the U.S. Customs and Border Protections (CBP) seized about $3.8 million worth of products because of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) Violations. CBP reported that the total number of IPR seizures has increased nine (9) percent since last year, from 28,865 in 2015 to 31,560 in 2016. With the manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP) exceeding $1.3 trillion.

What is Causing the Increase in Seizures?

Recordation of Trademark And Copyright With The CBP

In addition to registration of IPR with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO for trademarks), or the U.S. Copyright Office (for copyrights), owners can record said trademark or copyright with CBP. This additional step grants CBP additional enforcement power in both seizing counterfeit and piratical goods as well as thereafter issuing penalties for the MSRP value of the goods. In previous blog posts, we explained benefits of taking the extra step of recording your registered trademark or copyright with CBP, and CBP’s additional enforcement powers as a result of the recordations.
