All 18 Vietnamese exporting tra fish fillets to the US have been exempted from anti-dumping taxes.

Among the businesses, Vinh Hoan Group has also been enjoying a zero tax rate in the US market for four consecutive years.

The decision was announced by the US Department of Commerce (DoC) following its eighth preliminary results of administrative review (POR8) for anti-dumping duties on tra fish fillets imported from Vietnam from August 1, 2010 to July 31, 2011.

Truong Dinh Hoe, secretary general of the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP), said that according to the US regulations, any business which is offered a zero tax rate for three consecutive years can be exempted from anti-dumping duties indefinitely.

The DoC plans to release its final decision on anti-dumping duties for Vietnamese tra fish by early next year.
