Chinese Steel Cylinders Slammed with Antidumping Duties for 2023-2024
Published Date: 5/15/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce found that Wuyi Xilinde, a Chinese company, sold non-refillable steel cylinders in the U.S. for less than fair value from May 2023 to April 2024. Because of this, certain duties will apply to their imports starting May 15, 2026. This decision affects importers and helps keep the market fair by preventing cheap dumping.
Analyzed Economic Effects
4 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 4 costs, 0 mixed.
150.37% Duty on One Chinese Exporter
Commerce found that Wuyi Xilinde sold non-refillable steel cylinders in the U.S. below fair value for May 1, 2023 through April 30, 2024 and assigned a weighted-average dumping margin of 150.37 percent. Antidumping duties at 150.37% will be assessed on appropriate entries of Wuyi Xilinde's merchandise; Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection no earlier than 35 days after May 15, 2026, and if a timely summons is filed the entries will not be liquidated until the statutory injunction period (within 90 days of publication) has expired.
Cash Deposit Rules Effective May 15, 2026
Upon publication of the final results (May 15, 2026), cash deposit requirements take effect: (1) Wuyi Xilinde's cash deposit rate will equal its company-specific weighted-average dumping margin (150.37%); (2) previously reviewed exporters with a separate rate keep their existing cash deposit rate; (3) Chinese exporters without a separate rate will have a cash deposit rate of 101.67 percent; and (4) non-Chinese exporters not eligible for a separate rate will use the rate of the China exporter that supplied them.
China-Wide Rate Remains at 112.21%
Commerce did not review the China-wide entity because no party requested such a review, and the China-wide entity's rate remains 112.21 percent. That China-wide rate is not changed by this administrative review.
Importers Must Certify Reimbursement or Risk Double Duties
Importers are reminded of their duty to file a certificate about reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties prior to liquidation of relevant entries during the period May 1, 2023 through April 30, 2024. If importers do not file this certificate, Commerce may presume reimbursement occurred and could assess double antidumping duties and/or increase antidumping duties by the amount of countervailing duties.
