China Aluminum Foil Faces New U.S. Antidumping Duties
Published Date: 7/13/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce found that some Chinese aluminum foil makers sold their products in the U.S. for less than fair value from April 2024 to March 2025. This means certain companies, like Dingheng New Materials, might face extra duties to keep things fair for American businesses. The review results came out July 13, 2026, and interested parties can still share their thoughts before final decisions.
Analyzed Economic Effects
3 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 3 costs, 0 mixed.
Large Antidumping Duties Announced
Commerce preliminarily found dumping for April 1, 2024 through March 31, 2025 and assigned a 61.85% estimated weighted-average dumping margin to Jiangsu Dingsheng (and Xiamen Xiashun). Companies treated as part of the China-wide entity remain at a 105.80% rate. These preliminary margins were announced July 13, 2026 and could lead to large additional duties on affected imports.
Cash Deposit Rates on Future Shipments
If these results are finalized, cash deposit requirements will take effect for shipments of the subject merchandise entered for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results. The final cash deposit for companies with a separate rate will be the rate from the final results; exporters without a separate rate will face the China-wide cash deposit rate of 105.80%; non-China exporters without their own rate will carry the rate of the Chinese exporter that supplied them.
Importer Reimbursement Certificate Requirement
Importers must file a certificate about reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties prior to liquidation in this review under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2). If importers fail to file this certificate, Commerce may presume reimbursement occurred and can assess double antidumping duties or increase antidumping duties by the amount of countervailing duties.

This means no extra duties for Haur Tyi right now, and the review process is moving forward with some deadlines adjusted due to a government shutdown.
