Italian Steel Sellers Hit with Dumping Preliminary Slap

## Summary

The U.S. Department of Commerce found that two Italian steel companies, Metinvest Trametal and NLMK Verona, sold certain steel plates in the U.S. at unfairly low prices from May 2024 to April 2025. They’re also stopping the review for three other companies. This could mean changes in duties and costs starting August 6, 2026, so those involved should pay attention!

## Abstract

The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) preliminarily determines that Metinvest Trametal S.p.A. (MTS) and NLMK Verona S.p.A. (NVR) made sales of certain carbon and alloy steel cut-to-length plate (CTL plate) from Italy at less than normal value (NV) during the period of review (POR), May 1, 2024, through April 30, 2025. Additionally, Commerce is rescinding this review, in part, with respect to three companies. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results of review.

For these three companies Commerce will instruct U.S. Cus…
- Unreviewed Entries Assessed at 6.08%: cost, low. For entries produced by NVR or MTS where the companies did not know the merchandise was destined for the United States and those entries are unreviewed, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to liquidate those unreviewed entries at the all-others rate of 6.08 percent. This is the rate established in the…

The all-others cash deposit rate will remain 6.08 p…
