Analyzed Economic Effects
6 provisions identified: 3 benefits, 3 costs, 0 mixed.
Deadline to Request Administrative Review
If you import goods covered by the listed antidumping or countervailing duty orders, you must request an administrative review not later than the last day of February 2026. If Commerce does not receive a request by that date for an order and period listed, Customs and Border Protection will be instructed to assess duties on those entries at the cash deposit rate required at entry.
Fast Timeline for Respondent Selection Data
When Commerce limits the number of respondents for review, it will release U.S. Customs and Border Protection import data under an administrative protective order within five days of the initiation notice and will decide respondent selection within 35 days. Parties wanting to comment should file APO applications promptly and be prepared to comment within five days of placement of the CBP data on the record.
Deadline for Particular Market Situation Allegations
If you want Commerce to consider a ‘particular market situation’ (PMS) under section 773(e) of the Act, you must submit the PMS allegation and supporting factual information no later than 20 days after submission of initial Section D responses. If Commerce finds a PMS exists, it may modify dumping calculations.
Nonmarket-Economy (NME) Entity Not Reviewed Automatically
Commerce will not treat the nonmarket-economy (NME) entity as automatically under administrative review; the NME entity will only be reviewed if Commerce receives a specific request or self-initiates a review. If the NME entity is not reviewed, its rate will not change as a result of that review and Commerce will instruct Customs to liquidate entries for exporters not named in the initiation notice.
Annual Inquiry Service List Update 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; Commerce will finalize the lists five business days after that 30-day period. Petitioners and foreign governments that have submitted an entry once will remain on the list automatically in future years.
Right to Withdraw Review Requests Within 90 Days
A party that requests an administrative review may withdraw that request within 90 days of publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review, and Commerce may extend this 90-day period when reasonable. Withdrawal must occur within that timeframe unless Commerce grants an extension.
