US Slaps Preliminary Duties on Undercut Indian Frozen Shrimp
Published Date: 5/4/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce found that some Indian shrimp sellers sold their frozen warmwater shrimp at unfairly low prices from February 2024 to January 2025. This means antidumping duties might change, affecting importers and exporters soon. The review’s preliminary results came out on May 4, 2026, and interested parties can still share their thoughts before final decisions.

Analyzed Economic Effects
4 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 4 costs, 0 mixed.
Importer Reimbursement Certificate Risk
Importers must file a certificate about reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties prior to liquidation of relevant entries, under 19 CFR 351.402(f). Failure to file may lead Commerce to presume reimbursement and result in assessment of double antidumping duties or an increase by the amount of countervailing duties.
Preliminary Dumping Rates Announced
Commerce preliminarily found dumping for frozen warmwater shrimp from India for the period February 1, 2024 through January 31, 2025 and assigned estimated weighted-average dumping margins of 2.36% for the Devi Group, 4.30% for Sandhya, and 3.33% for companies not individually reviewed. These preliminary rates were published May 4, 2026 and may be used to calculate antidumping duties if finalized.
Cash Deposit Rate Rules and All-Others Rate
If the final results impose rates, cash deposit requirements for shipments entered or withdrawn for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results will be the final-review rates (or zero if the rate is less than 0.50%). For exporters or manufacturers not covered in this review, previously published company-specific rates remain, and for all other manufacturers or exporters the all-others cash deposit rate remains 10.17%.
Assessment Timing and CBP Instructions
Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to assess antidumping duties in accordance with the final results of this review; assessment instructions will not be issued earlier than 35 days after publication of the final results. If a timely summons is filed at the U.S. Court of International Trade, CBP will be directed not to liquidate relevant entries until the time for a statutory injunction has expired (within 90 days of publication).
