Importer Certification and Double-Duty Risk
Importers must file a certificate regarding reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of relevant entries from this review period. If importers fail to file the required certificate, Commerce may presume reimbursement occurred and assess double antidumping duties.
Koehler Imports Liquidated with No Duty
Commerce found that thermal paper from Koehler Paper SE and Koehler Kehl GmbH was not sold below normal value for the period November 1, 2023 through October 31, 2024, and assigned them a 0.00 percent dumping margin. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will be instructed to liquidate appropriate entries of Koehler without regard to antidumping duties, effective upon publication on August 3, 2026.
Cash Deposit Rate and All-Others Rate Set
Effective upon publication on August 3, 2026, cash deposit requirements for thermal paper shipments entered or withdrawn for consumption on or after that date will use the company-specific rates from these final results (Koehler 0.00%, Convertidoras 0.76%, Papeles 0.76%). For all other producers and exporters, the cash deposit rate remains 6.27 percent (the all-others rate).
Non-Examined Firms Assigned 0.76% Rate
Commerce assigned Convertidoras PCM, S.A. de C.V. and Papeles y Conversiones de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. a review-specific dumping margin of 0.76 percent for the period November 1, 2023 through October 31, 2024.
