In August 2025, the U.S. Worldwide Commerce Fee (ITC) decided to start an antidumping/countervailing obligation (AD/CVD) investigation on photo voltaic cells and panels imported from India, Indonesia and Laos. An uptick in photo voltaic imports from Indonesia and Laos has been noticeable — extra so than from India — however now the Dept. of Commerce is figuring out potential tariff quantities for photo voltaic imports from all three international locations if the ITC finds unfair commerce practices.

American panel producers first requested the investigation in July, alleging that firms had relocated their operations to India, Indonesia and Laos to keep away from tariffs positioned on imports from Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam. The ITC is investigating additional. Commerce was scheduled to disclose its preliminary CVD quantities in October, however the authorities shutdown prevented that. Commerce’s preliminary antidumping quantities have been scheduled to be introduced in late December. The petitioners have recognized dumping margins of 89.65% for Indonesia, as much as 249.09% for Laos and 213.96% for India. There was no affirmation on when the investigation schedule will resume.
