Commerce Finds Spanish Wire Strand Dumping
Published Date: 6/22/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce found that a Spanish company, TYCSA, sold prestressed concrete steel wire strand at unfairly low prices from June 2024 to May 2025. This means extra duties might be charged to keep things fair for U.S. businesses. The review’s preliminary results came out on June 22, 2026, and people can still share their thoughts before final decisions.
Analyzed Economic Effects
5 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 5 costs, 0 mixed.
TYCSA Found To Dump At 13.57%
Commerce preliminarily found that Global Special Steel Products S.A.U. (d.b.a. Trenzas y Cables de Acero PSC, S.L. or TYCSA) sold prestressed concrete steel wire strand in the U.S. at less than normal value for the period June 1, 2024 through May 31, 2025, and assigned a weighted-average dumping margin of 13.57% (preliminary). This preliminary finding (published June 22, 2026) can lead to antidumping duties based on that margin when the review is finalized.
Reimbursement Certification Could Trigger Double Duties
Importers must file a certificate regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of relevant entries for this review period under 19 CFR 351.402(f). Failure to file may lead Commerce to presume reimbursement occurred and result in assessment of double antidumping duties.
Potential Cash Deposit Requirement
If the final results adopt a non-de minimis margin, cash deposit rates for shipments of the subject merchandise entered on or after the publication date of the final results will be set to the company-specific rate from this review (unless that rate is de minimis, i.e., less than 0.50%, in which case the cash deposit rate will be zero). For exporters not covered in this review the all-others cash deposit rate remains 14.75%.
How Antidumping Duties Will Be Assessed
Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to assess antidumping duties on appropriate entries according to the final results. Importer-specific assessment rates will be calculated from the ratio of total dumping to entered value for examined sales, or as a per-unit rate when entered values are not available; rates below 0.50% are treated as de minimis and entries will be liquidated without regard to duties.
Automatic Assessment For Unknown U.S. Shipments
For POR entries of TYCSA-produced merchandise where TYCSA did not know the goods were destined for the United States, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to liquidate those entries at the less-than-fair-value investigation all-others rate if there is no rate for intermediate companies. The all-others rate from the LTFV investigation is 14.75%.
