Published Date: 4/27/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce found that some Thai steel pipe companies sold products below fair value from March 2024 to February 2025. They’re stopping the review for 28 companies that didn’t have any sales during this time. This means some businesses might face extra duties soon, while others get a break—so keep an eye out for updates!

Cash Deposit Rules After Final Results
When Commerce publishes the final results, the cash deposit rate for subject merchandise exported by Saha Thai or TPP will equal the weighted-average dumping margin established in the final results. For exporters/producers not covered in this review, previously established company-specific rates remain; for all other producers/exporters the all-others rate remains 15.67 percent. These cash deposit requirements apply to shipments entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results.
Review Rescinded for 28 Companies
Commerce rescinded the administrative review for 28 companies listed in Appendix II because they had no suspended entries during March 1, 2024 through February 28, 2025. For those rescinded companies, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess antidumping duties at the cash deposit rate required at the time of entry for entries during that period; assessment instructions will be issued no earlier than 35 days after publication.
Importer Reimbursement Certificate Requirement
Importers must file a certificate regarding reimbursement of antidumping duties under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) prior to liquidation of entries covered by this review. Failure to file the certificate could lead Commerce to presume reimbursement occurred and result in assessment of double antidumping duties.
Liquidation at All-Others Rate for Unknown Destinations
For entries of subject merchandise produced by Saha Thai where Saha Thai did not know the merchandise was destined to the United States, Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate those entries at the all-others rate if there is no rate for intermediate company(ies) involved. The all-others rate established in the original investigation is 15.67 percent.
Preliminary Dumping Margin: 0.64%
Commerce preliminarily found Saha Thai Steel Pipe Public Co., Ltd. and Thai Premium Pipe Co. Ltd. have a weighted-average dumping margin of 0.64% for March 1, 2024 through February 28, 2025 (notice applicable April 27, 2026). If that margin is not zero or de minimis in the final results, Commerce will calculate importer-specific ad valorem assessment rates based on the final margin.
