Trade Cheating Restitution Act of 2025
S 3543, the Trade Cheating Restitution Act of 2025, modifies how interest from antidumping and countervailing duties is distributed to eligible businesses. It updates the reference date for interest calculations from October 1, 2014, to October 1, 2000, and creates a special distribution process for interest accrued before the bill's enactment. Eligible businesses must have previously received distributions under the 2000 Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act, file timely certifications, and meet historical eligibility criteria. The bill mandates pro-rata distributions of this interest by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection within 210 days of enactment, split between interest from 2010 onward and 2000-2010.
