Court Tweaks Thai Steel Pipe Import Duties in New Ruling
Published Date: 2/18/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Court of International Trade changed the way antidumping duties are calculated for steel pipes from Thailand, specifically for Saha Thai Steel Pipe. This means Saha Thai’s duty rates are updated starting February 14, 2026, which could affect how much money they owe or get back. If you’re involved in importing these pipes, keep an eye on these new numbers and deadlines!
Analyzed Economic Effects
3 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.
Saha Thai Dumping Margin Set to 0%
The Department of Commerce amended the final results so that Saha Thai Steel Pipe Public Co., Ltd. has a remand weighted-average dumping margin of 0.00 percent. This amendment applies to entries covered by the administrative review for the period March 1, 2018, through February 28, 2019, and is effective February 14, 2026.
Liquidation of Saha Thai Entries Paused
Entries produced and exported by Saha Thai and entered or withdrawn for consumption during March 1, 2018, through February 28, 2019, remain enjoined from liquidation while appeals proceed. If the Court of International Trade ruling is not appealed or is upheld, Commerce will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on unliquidated entries where the importer-specific ad valorem assessment rate is not zero or de minimis; where the importer-specific rate is zero or de minimis, Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate without regard to antidumping duties.
Current Cash Deposit Rate Unchanged
Commerce will not issue revised cash deposit instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection because Saha Thai has a superseding cash deposit rate from a later review. This notice will not affect the current cash deposit rate, effective February 14, 2026.
