Bloomberg Law Quotes Bernd Janzen on Coronavirus’ Impact on Accuracy of Trade Duties
Contact:
Bloomberg Law has quoted Akin Gump international trade partner Bernd Janzen in the article “Accuracy of Duties Could Be a Virus Casualty, Trade Lawyers Say.” The article reports that the Commerce Department’s inability to travel internationally to verify the data of foreign manufacturers will likely raise the possibility that dumping and subsidy duties will be skewed.
According to Bloomberg, the response to the coronavirus pandemic is also taking its toll on trade lawyers’ ability to meet statutory deadlines in dumping and subsidy cases. Janzen said it will be difficult to assemble the voluminous data required by the Commerce Department.
