Editing Countervailing duties (section)

==By country==
===United States===
Countervailing duties in the U.S. are assessed by the [[International Trade Administration]] of the [[U.S. Department of Commerce]] which determines whether imports in question are being subsidized and, if so, by how much. If the [[United States International Trade Commission|U.S. International Trade Commission]] determines that there is material injury to the competing domestic industry, the Department of Commerce will instruct [[U.S. Customs and Border Protection]] to levy duties in the amount equivalent to subsidy margins.<ref>https://www.trade.gov/us-antidumping-and-countervailing-duties {{Bare URL inline|date=August 2024}}</ref>

Petitions for remedies may be filed by domestic manufacturers or unions within the domestic industry, but the law requires that the petitioners represent at least 25% of the domestic production of the goods for which competition is causing material injury.
