Request a Review: Stop Those Sneaky Cheap Imports!
Published Date: 12/8/2025
Notice
Summary
If you’re involved in importing goods that might be subject to special duties (called antidumping or countervailing duties), now’s your chance to ask the government to review those duties. This happens every year around the order’s anniversary, and it could affect how much money you pay or get back. Act fast—there are deadlines to join the review and comment on which companies get examined closely.
Analyzed Economic Effects
7 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 2 costs, 3 mixed.
No Request → CBP Assesses Cash Deposit Rate
If Commerce does not receive a request for review of the listed entries by the last day of December 2025, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess antidumping or countervailing duties on those entries at the cash deposit rate required at entry and to continue collecting the previously ordered cash deposit.
Nonmarket-Economy (NME) Entity Review Rules
Commerce will not treat the nonmarket-economy (NME) entity as automatically under review; the NME entity will be reviewed only if Commerce specifically receives a request for it or self-initiates a review. If an individual exporter does not qualify for a separate rate and no review of the NME entity was requested, Commerce will treat that exporter as part of the NME entity and entries for exporters not named in the initiation notice will be liquidated accordingly.
Request AD/CVD Review by Dec 31, 2025
If you are an interested party (importer, exporter, producer, or other party) you may request an administrative review of the listed antidumping (AD) or countervailing duty (CVD) orders with anniversary months in November and December. Requests must be filed electronically and received not later than December 31, 2025.
Respondent Selection Uses CBP Data and APO Timeline
If Commerce limits the number of respondents in an administrative review, it intends to select respondents based on CBP import data for the period of review (POR). Commerce will release that CBP data under an administrative protective order (APO) to parties with an APO within five days of the initiation notice and expects to decide respondent selection within 35 days of the initiation notice; parties may comment on respondent selection within five days of the CBP data being placed on the record.
Particular Market Situation (PMS) Filing Deadline
If you want to submit a 'particular market situation' (PMS) allegation under section 773(e) of the Tariff Act, you must file the PMS allegation and supporting factual information no later than 20 days after submission of initial Section D responses in the review.
Withdraw Review Requests Within 90 Days
A party that requests an administrative review may withdraw that request within 90 days of the date Commerce publishes the notice of initiation of the requested review. Commerce may extend the 90-day withdrawal period on a case-by-case basis.
Annual Inquiry Service List Update — 30-Day Window
Commerce will update annual inquiry service lists for the listed orders and suspended investigations; interested parties have 30 days after the date of this notice to submit new or amended entries of appearance in ACCESS. Commerce will finalize the annual inquiry service lists five business days after the 30-day submission window.
