Court Tweaks Japan Steel Duties in Routine Trade Ruling

## Summary

The U.S. Court of International Trade changed the antidumping duty results for nickel-plated steel products from Japan, specifically affecting Toyo Kohan Co., Ltd. This means the Department of Commerce is updating the final duty rates for Toyo Kohan based on the court’s decision, starting June 1, 2026. If you’re involved in importing these steel products, keep an eye on these new numbers—they could impact costs and trade moves.

## Abstract

On May 22, 2026, the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) issued its final judgment in Toyo Kohan Co., Ltd. v. United States, Consol. Court no. 24-00261, sustaining the Department of Commerce's (Commerce's) remand results pertaining to the administrative review of the antidumping duty (AD) order on diffusion-annealed, nickel-plated flat-rolled steel products (nickel-plated steel products) from Japan covering the period May 1, 2022, through April 30, 2023. Commerce is notifying the public that the CIT's final judgment is not in harmony with Commerce's final results of the administrative review, and that Commerce is amending the final results with respect to the dumping margin assigned to Toyo Kohan Co., Ltd (Toyo Kohan).

## Effects PRIA read

- Toyo Kohan Dumping Margin Raised: cost, low. The Department of Commerce amended Toyo Kohan Co., Ltd.'s weighted-average dumping margin from 4.44 percent to 4.58 percent for the period May 1, 2022 through April 30, 2023. This amendment is effective June 1, 2026 and applies to entries covered by that administrative review.
- No Change to Current Cash Deposit Rate: mixed, low. Commerce will not issue revised cash deposit instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection because a subsequent administrative review has a superseding cash deposit rate. This notice does not change the current cash deposit rate and is applicable June 1, 2026.
- Entries Remain Enjoined; Possible Duty Assessment: cost, medium. Commerce is enjoined by a Court of International Trade order from liquidating entries produced and/or exported by Toyo Kohan that were entered or withdrawn for consumption during May 1, 2022 through April 30, 2023; these entries remain enjoined during any appeals.
