Following its decision on March 14, Vietnam’s frozen fillets of tra and basa fish exporters will have to pay the duties ten times more than before, from at least US$0.19 to US$0.77-3.87 per kilo.

Last year, Vietnam earned US$358 million from its frozen fillets of tra and basa exports to the US-its second largest market.

The DOC’s new decision will take effect as of next week until early 2014 before the Department’s next administrative review.
