Analyzed Economic Effects
6 provisions identified: 4 benefits, 2 costs, 0 mixed.
June 2026 Review Window
If you are an interested party in any of the orders or suspended investigations listed in this notice, you may request an administrative review not later than the last day of June 2026 for the listed periods (for example, many listed periods run 6/1/25–5/31/26). Requests made by that deadline will prompt Commerce to consider initiating administrative reviews for those orders.
Automatic Assessment at Deposit Rate
If Commerce does not receive, by the last day of June 2026, a request for review of entries covered by an order, finding, or suspended investigation listed in this notice for the period identified, 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 to collect the previously-ordered cash deposit.
Nonmarket-Economy (NME) Entity Rule
Commerce will not treat the nonmarket-economy (NME) entity as an exporter automatically; 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 an individual exporter that was reviewed does not qualify for a separate rate, Commerce will treat that exporter as part of the NME entity and, if no review of the NME entity occurred, the NME entity's rate will not change as a result of that review.
Particular Market Situation Deadline
If you wish to submit a particular market situation (PMS) allegation under section 773(e) of the Tariff Act, you must submit the PMS allegation and supporting factual information no later than 20 days after submission of initial Section D responses so Commerce has time to consider it and, if it finds a PMS, modify dumping calculations accordingly.
90-Day Withdrawal Window
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, and Commerce may extend this 90-day deadline if it finds a reasonable basis to do so.
No Assessment in Provisional 'Gap' Period
For the first administrative review of any order, Commerce will not assess antidumping or countervailing duties on subject merchandise entries entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption during the provisional-measures 'gap' period of the order, if such a gap period applies to the period of review.
