Summary

The U.S. says some Korean steel makers got unfair help from their government in 2023, which could mean extra taxes on their steel. But for 54 companies, the review is being dropped, so no changes there. If you’re involved, now’s the time to speak up before the final decision!

Preliminary Finding: Korean CTL Plate Subsidies

The Department of Commerce preliminarily found that certain producers and exporters of carbon and alloy steel cut-to-length plate (CTL plate) from the Republic of Korea received countervailable subsidies during the period January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023. This preliminary determination applies to certain named producers and exporters of that product and is open for comment before a final decision.

Review Rescinded for 54 Companies

Commerce is rescinding the administrative review for 54 named companies, meaning the review will not proceed for those 54 companies for the January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 period. If you are one of those companies, the review has been dropped for your company.
