The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) has announced the final result of the sixth Administrative Review of anti-dumping duty order on certain Vietnamese frozen fish fillet in the period from August 01, 2008 to July 31, 2009. Accordingly, enterprises have to pay a lower anti-dumping duty rate compared with this in the preliminary result released in September, 2010.

Basing on reviewing records and comments from Vietnam, DOC finally decided to choose Bangladesh as the benchmark to calculate dumping margin imposed on Vietnamese pangasius. This leads to lower duty rate for enterprises.

VASEP welcomes DOC's the sixth final result and DOC's use of data from Bangladesh as the benchmark is objective and fair.
