Taiwan Steel Faces New Antidumping Duties from Commerce
Published Date: 5/18/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce found that some corrosion-resistant steel from Taiwan was sold in the U.S. for less than fair value between July 2023 and June 2024. This means certain Taiwanese steel makers, like Prosperity Tieh, will face extra duties to level the playing field. These final results take effect on May 18, 2026, impacting importers and buyers with updated costs.
Analyzed Economic Effects
5 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 3 costs, 1 mixed.
11.04% Risk for Unknown Intermediates
For entries of subject merchandise produced by respondents where the producer did not know the merchandise was destined for the United States, Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate those entries at the all-others rate of 11.04% if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies). This applies under Commerce's automatic assessment practice.
Reimbursement Certificate Required or Risk Double Duties
Importers must file a certificate about reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2). If importers fail to file this certificate, Commerce may presume reimbursement occurred and assess double antidumping duties on the entries covered by this review.
Zero Duties for Two Producers
If you import corrosion-resistant steel from Sheng Yu Steel Co., Ltd or Prosperity Tieh Enterprise Co., Ltd for entries during July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024, Commerce determined their weighted-average dumping margins are 0.00%. Commerce intends to instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to liquidate those entries without regard to antidumping duties, effective May 18, 2026.
Cash Deposit Rules Start May 18
Upon publication of these final results (effective May 18, 2026), cash deposit requirements apply to shipments entered or withdrawn for consumption on or after that publication date. Cash deposit rates will equal the company-specific dumping margins from this review (0.00% for Sheng Yu and Prosperity; 0.99% for Great Grandeul) and 11.04% for all other manufacturers or exporters.
0.99% Duty for Great Grandeul
Commerce determined a 0.99% weighted-average dumping margin for Great Grandeul Steel Company Limited (Samoa) for the period July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024. Commerce will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties at that ad valorem rate and set cash deposit requirements accordingly, effective May 18, 2026.
