Anti-Dumping Duties on Vietnamese Shrimp Spike in the U.S., Exporters Cry Foul
According to the announcement, Thong Thuan Company (including Thong Thuan Cam Ranh) was found not to have dumped shrimp, with a 0% dumping margin. In contrast, STAPIMEX received a preliminary duty rate of 35.29%.
This rate also applies to 22 other companies that qualified for separate rate status but were not individually examined—a break from the usual practice of calculating a weighted-average rate from the two mandatory respondents.
In a press release, the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP) and the affected companies expressed shock and deep concern over the sudden and unusually high preliminary rate.
This situation is reminiscent of POR12, where DOC initially applied a 25.76% preliminary rate on FIMEX due to calculation errors, which was later revised to 4.58% in the final result.

Therefore, VASEP and the companies strongly believe there have been mistakes or miscalculations in this latest review.
STAPIMEX had thoroughly prepared and was confident in its accounting records to secure the lowest possible rate. However, VASEP believes errors on both sides may have led to incorrect data and an inexplicably high preliminary result.
“We firmly believe the final result will be corrected and accurately reflect that Vietnamese companies are not dumping shrimp into the U.S. market,” a VASEP representative emphasized.
Although the preliminary results are not yet in effect and may change in the final determination expected in December 2025, VASEP warned that psychological impacts have already emerged.
Many U.S. importers are now hesitant to place new orders, and some have even postponed or cut orders from Vietnamese partners. This directly affects exporters, shrimp farmers, and the domestic supply chain.
Amid the Trump administration’s return and renewed push for high countervailing tariffs on imports from several countries, this abnormal anti-dumping duty presents even greater obstacles for Vietnam’s shrimp sector to access the U.S.—Vietnam’s largest shrimp export market.
