On February 10, 2023, the United States International Trade Commission (ITC) published notice of its determination that a U.S. industry is not injured, or threatened with injury, by reason of U.S. imports of dumped steel nails from India, Oman, and Turkey.

GDLSK represented an Indian nail producer and a U.S. importer before the ITC. GDLSK successfully convinced the ITC that imports of steel nails from India, Oman, and Turkey were not injurious. The ITC agreed in a 5-0 vote. As a result of the ITC’s negative determination, antidumping duties (ADD) will not go into effect on imports of steel nails from India, Oman, and Turkey. Any and all preliminary ADDs already collected will be refunded to U.S. importers.

GDLSK has had an unparalleled success rate before the ITC in recent years. Since January 2018, the ITC has issued 16 negative determinations in ADD/CVD material injury cases, and GDLSK, has been counsel in five of these negative decisions.
