Five‑Year Review of Pipe & Tube Duties
On January 26, 2026, the U.S. International Trade Commission scheduled full five‑year reviews to decide whether revoking the countervailing duty order on light‑walled rectangular pipe and tube from China and the antidumping duty orders on light‑walled rectangular pipe and tube from China, Mexico, South Korea, and Turkey would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to U.S. businesses. The Commission also stated it may extend the review period by up to 90 days and that its schedule was tolled because of a lapse in appropriations.
