New Dumping Rates for Chinese Tire Exporters
If you import passenger vehicle or light truck tires from China, Commerce amended the antidumping margins to 41.36 percent for Shandong Linglong Tyre Co., Ltd. and 87.99 percent for the China-wide entity, effective March 14, 2026. These new ad valorem rates apply to the administrative review covering August 1, 2016 through July 31, 2017.
Linglong Entries from 2016-2017 Remain Enjoined; Duties Possible
Entries produced and exported by Linglong and entered or withdrawn for consumption during August 1, 2016 through July 31, 2017 remain enjoined from liquidation while appeals proceed. If the CIT's ruling is not appealed or is upheld by a final decision, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on unliquidated entries when the importer-specific ad valorem assessment rate is not zero or de minimis; entries with a zero or de minimis importer-specific rate will be liquidated without regard to antidumping duties.
Current Cash Deposit Instructions Unchanged
Commerce will not issue revised cash deposit instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection because Linglong has a superseding cash deposit rate; this notice will not affect the current cash deposit rate. If you are paying cash deposits today, your current deposit instructions remain in place.
