The Office of the U.S. Trade Representative requested country-by-country comments from industry experts to assist the agency in reviewing and identifying any unfair trade practices by other countries. In response, DHA has filed comments on non-reciprocal trade relationships and tariffs. DHA highlighted that our members have been harmed by unfair trade practices engaged in by countries, particularly in Asia. …DHA members, particularly hardwood plywood manufacturers and engineered wood floor manufacturers, have in recent years successfully pursued antidumping and countervailing duty trade cases against Chinese manufacturers. While helpful, these cases are time-consuming and expensive and do not solve the problem. Too often, Chinese companies are quick to transship through other Asian countries like Vietnam, Indonesia, or Malaysia. …In addition to banning all wood products made from Russian wood, USTR should consider increasing the tariff on wood products made with birch that often comes in at no tariff.
