The United States International Trade Commission is an independent, quasi-judicial Federal agency with broad investigative responsibilities on matters of trade.

The agency investigates the effects of dumped and subsidized imports on domestic industries and conducts global safeguard investigations. Through such proceedings, the agency facilitates a rules-based international trading system. The Commission also serves as a Federal resource where trade data and other trade policy-related information are gathered and analyzed. The information and analysis are provided to the President, the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR), and Congress to facilitate the development of sound and informed U.S. trade policy.
