Paper File Folders from Sri Lanka Injure U.S. Industry, Says USITC

The U.S. International Trade (Commission or USITC) today determined that a U.S. industry is materially injured by reason of imports of paper file folders from Sri Lanka that the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) has determined are sold in the United States at less than fair value.

Chair Amy A. Karpel and Commissioners David S. Johanson and Jason E. Kearns voted in the affirmative. 

As a result of the Commission’s affirmative determination, Commerce will issue an antidumping duty order on imports of these products from Sri Lanka. 

The Commission’s public report on Paper File Folders from Sri Lanka (Inv. No. 731-TA-1719 (Final), USITC Publication 5668, September 2025) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the investigation.

The report will be available by October 16, 2025; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website.

Status of proceedings, links to relevant documents, and more information about this investigation can be found at the Commission’s Investigations Database System (IDS).
