Pipes from India, Turkey Stay Taxed: Fair Play Continues
Published Date: 1/8/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce decided to keep extra taxes on certain oil pipes from India and Türkiye because removing them could let unfair government help continue. This affects companies importing these pipes and helps U.S. manufacturers stay competitive. These rules are effective starting January 8, 2026, so importers should be ready for the ongoing costs.
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.
Importers Pay Continued CVDs
If you import certain oil country tubular goods (OCTG) from India or Türkiye, extra countervailing duties remain in place starting January 8, 2026. The final ad valorem rates listed are: India — Jindal SAW Ltd 27.77%, GVN Fuels Ltd/Maharashtra Seamless/Jindal Pipes 13.87%, All Others 20.82%; Türkiye — Borusan (and All Others) 2.87%.
U.S. OCTG Makers Protected
U.S. manufacturers of oil country tubular goods benefit because the Department of Commerce found that revoking the duties would likely let countervailable subsidies continue. The decision to keep the countervailing duty orders is effective January 8, 2026 and is intended to help U.S. producers remain competitive with subsidized imports.
