Thai Tires Tagged for Dumping Duties – Road to Fair Trade?
Published Date: 7/20/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce found that Sentury Tire from Thailand sold tires in the U.S. at unfairly low prices from July 2023 to June 2024, while Sumitomo Rubber did not. This means Sentury may face extra duties to level the playing field. These final results take effect on July 20, 2026, impacting importers and sellers of these tires.
Analyzed Economic Effects
5 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 4 costs, 0 mixed.
Importer Certificate and Double‑Duty Risk
Importers must file a certificate about reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of relevant entries for the July 1, 2023–June 30, 2024 period. If an importer fails to file the certificate, Commerce may presume reimbursement occurred and assess double antidumping duties.
Sentury Assigned 2.90% Dumping Margin
Commerce found Sentury Tire (Thailand) sold tires in the U.S. below normal value for July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024 and assigned a 2.90% weighted-average dumping margin. This decision takes effect July 20, 2026 and means importers of Sentury tires may face antidumping duties based on that 2.90% rate.
Non‑Examined Thai Producers Get 2.90% Rate
Companies from Thailand that were not individually reviewed (including Bridgestone, Deestone, Huayi Group (Thailand), Prinx Chengshan, S.R. Tyres, Vee Tyre & Rubber, Yokohama entities, and others listed) have been assigned the review-specific rate of 2.90%. Cash deposit rates for shipments entered on or after publication will reflect the company-specific or review-specific rates, and the all-others rate remains 17.06%.
How Duties Will Be Assessed and Deadlines
U.S. Customs and Border Protection will assess antidumping duties per the final results: Commerce will calculate importer-specific ad valorem rates or per-unit rates if entered values are missing. Commerce will issue assessment instructions no earlier than 35 days after publication, and if a timely summons is filed, CBP will be directed not to liquidate entries until the 90-day statutory injunction window expires.
Sumitomo Rubber Faces No Duty
Commerce determined Sumitomo Rubber (Thailand) had a 0.00% dumping margin for July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024, meaning Sumitomo will not face antidumping duties from this review. This result is effective July 20, 2026.
