What you’ll learn

Match the orderDistinguish AD, CVD, and related measures, separate Commerce and USITC roles, and treat the written scope as controlling over HTS hints.Name the measure, know which agency owns the question, and match product facts to the narrative scope.
File the moneyReport ordinary classification plus current remedy instructions, explain estimated deposits and suspension of liquidation, and escalate coverage doubts through Commerce scope rulings.Entry reporting, deposits, and liquidation keep the money honest while coverage questions escalate formally.
Keep controlSpot circumvention risk, run Section 301 as a separate origin-and-list checklist, stack measures without averaging, and leave a change-trigger habit on each SKU.Routing tricks do not erase orders; stacked remedies and future SKU changes need separate, repeatable controls.

Questions this course answers

What controls whether merchandise is covered by an AD or CVD order?

CBP states that HTS classifications are listed for convenience, but the written description of the scope is dispositive.

Put the basic AD/CVD path in order.

Commerce and the USITC answer different questions before an order is enforced through CBP entry instructions.

Why is an AD/CVD cash deposit not necessarily the final duty?

CBP explains that amounts paid at entry are cash deposits of estimated AD/CVD, and the final amount is determined retrospectively after Commerce review and assessment instructions.

Which statement about Section 301 is correct?

CBP's Section 301 FAQ states that Section 301 duties are based on country of origin, not country of export, and they must be analyzed under their own notices and exclusions.
