Analyzed Economic Effects
8 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 6 costs, 0 mixed.
Request an Administrative Review by March
If you are an interested party (importer, exporter, or producer), you may request an administrative review of listed antidumping (AD) or countervailing duty (CVD) orders with anniversary dates in March. Requests must be made not later than the last day of March 2026.
No Request Triggers Cash-Deposit Assessment
If Commerce does not receive a request for review of a listed order by the last day of March 2026, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to assess antidumping or countervailing duties on those entries at a rate equal to the cash deposit required at the time of entry and to continue collecting that cash deposit.
Nonmarket-Economy (NME) Entity Review Rule
Commerce no longer considers the nonmarket-economy (NME) entity as an exporter conditionally subject to AD administrative review; the NME entity will not be under review unless Commerce specifically receives a request for, or self-initiates, a review of the NME entity. If no review of the NME entity is conducted, entries for exporters not named in the initiation notice will be liquidated and the NME entity's rate will not change as a result of that review.
Respondent Selection Uses CBP Data Quickly
If Commerce limits the number of respondents for individual examination, it intends to select respondents using U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) import data for the period of review. Commerce will release CBP data under an administrative protective order within five days of publication of the initiation notice and make respondent-selection decisions within 35 days of that initiation notice; parties may comment on the CBP data within five days after it is placed on the record.
Deadline for Particular Market Situation Claims
If you want to submit a Particular Market Situation (PMS) allegation under section 773(e) of the Act, you must provide the PMS allegation and supporting factual information no later than 20 days after submission of initial Section D responses.
Withdraw Review Requests Within 90 Days
A party that requests an administrative review may withdraw that request within 90 days of the date of publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review; Commerce may extend this 90-day deadline if reasonable and will decide extensions case-by-case.
Electronic Filing and Service Required via ACCESS
All review requests must be filed electronically in Commerce's ACCESS system at https://access.trade.gov, and a copy of each request must be served on the petitioner and each exporter or producer specified in the request in accordance with 19 CFR 351.303(f).
Update Annual Inquiry Service List in 30 Days
Commerce will update annual inquiry service lists for the listed proceedings; interested parties have 30 days after the date of this notice to submit new or amended entries of appearance, and Commerce will finalize the lists five business days thereafter. Petitioners and foreign governments that submitted an entry once will be automatically added in later years.
