Commerce Reviews Korean Steel Pipe Duties Again

## Summary

The U.S. Department of Commerce found that some Korean welded line pipe makers sold their products in the U.S. for less than fair value from December 2023 to November 2024. They’re stopping the review for 26 companies, but Hyundai Pipe and SeAH Steel are still under the microscope. This could mean changes in duties and costs soon, so affected companies should pay close attention!

## Abstract

The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) preliminarily determines that producers/exporters subject to this review made sales of subject merchandise at less than normal value (NV) during the period of review (POR) December 1, 2023, through November 30, 2024. In addition, we are rescinding the review with respect to 26 companies. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results.

## Effects PRIA read

- Preliminary Dumping Margins Announced: cost, medium. Commerce preliminarily found dumping for sales during December 1, 2023 through November 30, 2024 and assigned weighted-average dumping margins of 1.86 percent to Hyundai Steel Pipe Co., Ltd., AJU Besteel, EEW Korea, Husteel, Kumkang Kind, and NEXTEEL, and 0.00 percent to SeAH Steel Corporation. The…

Commerce is rescinding the administrative review for 26 listed companies (Appendix II) because there were no suspended entries during the period December 1, 2023 through November 30, 2024; Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to assess antidumping duties on appropriate entries…
- Cash Deposit Rules for Future Shipments: cost, medium. Upon publication of the final results of this review, cash deposit requirements will apply to shipments entered on or after that publication date: company-specific rates from the final results will apply (but rates under 0.50 percent are treated as zero), previously established company rates remain…
- How Assessment and Liquidation Will Work: mixed, medium. Commerce intends to calculate importer-specific assessment rates based on the ratio of total dumping to entered value for examined sales and will liquidate entries accordingly; if a weighted-average dumping margin or importer-specific ad valorem rate is zero or de minimis (less than 0.50 percent),…
- Importer Certificate Requirement — Risk of Double Duties: cost, high. Importers must file a certificate regarding reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of the relevant entries under 19 CFR 351.402(f); failure to file may lead Commerce to presume reimbursement occurred and to assess double antidumping duties. This requirement applies to importers fo…
