Japan Steel Cleared of Dumping in Latest Administrative Review

## Summary

The U.S. Department of Commerce checked if Nippon Steel Corporation sold non-oriented electrical steel from Japan at unfairly low prices between December 2023 and November 2024. They found no evidence of dumping, meaning no extra duties will be charged—at least for now. Companies involved should keep an eye out because the review results are still open for comments and could affect future trade rules or costs.

## Abstract

The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) preliminarily determines that Nippon Steel Corporation (NSC) did not sell subject merchandise at less than normal value (NV) during the period of review (POR), December 1, 2023, through November 30, 2024. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results of review.

## Effects PRIA read

- Preliminary No-Duties Finding for Nippon Steel: benefit, medium. Commerce preliminarily found that Nippon Steel Corporation sold non-oriented electrical steel from Japan at a 0.00% dumping margin for the period December 1, 2023 through November 30, 2024. That means, for now, Commerce does not plan to impose antidumping duties on NSC's entries covering that perio…
- Cash Deposit Rules and 135.59% All‑Others Rate: mixed, high. The cash deposit rate for Nippon Steel will be the rate set in the final results of this review; if that rate is less than 0.50% it will be treated as zero. For all other manufacturers or exporters not covered in this review, the cash deposit rate will remain 135.59 percent as established in the or…
- Automatic Assessment for Unknown‑Destination Entries: cost, medium. Commerce will apply its automatic-assessment practice: for entries of subject merchandise produced by NSC where NSC did not know the merchandise was destined for the United States, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to liquidate those entries at the all-others rate from the less‑than‑fair‑value inves…
- Importer Certificate Requirement — Risk of Double Duties: cost, medium. Importers must file a certificate about reimbursement of antidumping duties before liquidation of relevant entries for this review period under 19 CFR 351.402(f). If an importer fails to file the certificate, Commerce may presume reimbursement occurred and assess double antidumping duties.
