2 U.S. law distinguishes between “export” subsidies, which are specifically designed to promote exports, and “domestic” subsidies, which are benefits to a firm’s general manufacture or production. See §771(5) of the Trade Agreements Act of 1979, 19 U.S.C. §1677(5). While export subsidies are always countervailable, domestic subsidies are countervailable only under certain circumstances.
