Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) determines that Both-Well Steel Fittings Co., Ltd. (Both-Well), made sales of subject merchandise at less than normal value (NV) during the period of review (POR), September 1, 2023, through August 31, 2024.
Analyzed Economic Effects
5 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 5 costs, 0 mixed.
Unreviewed Entries May Face 116.17% Rate
For entries during the period produced by Both‑Well for which Both‑Well did not know the merchandise was destined for the United States, CBP will be instructed to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all‑others rate of 116.17% if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved.
Both‑Well Assigned 10.62% Dumping Margin
Commerce found that Both‑Well Steel Fittings Co., Ltd. sold forged steel fittings at less than normal value and assigned a weighted‑average dumping margin of 10.62% for the period September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2024.
Commerce Will Assess Antidumping Duties
Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review. Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions no earlier than 35 days after publication, and if a timely summons is filed at the U.S. Court of International Trade, CBP will be directed not to liquidate relevant entries until the statutory injunction period (i.e., within 90 days of publication) has expired.
Cash Deposit Rules Effective on Publication
The cash deposit requirements apply to shipments entered or withdrawn for consumption on or after the date of publication (Applicable August 6, 2026). The cash deposit rate for Both‑Well will equal the final weighted‑average dumping margin (10.62%). The cash deposit for all other producers/exporters not otherwise covered will remain the all‑others rate of 116.17%, with company‑specific rules described for firms reviewed in prior segments.
Importers Must File Reimbursement Certificate
Importers are reminded of their duty under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate about reimbursement of antidumping duties before liquidation of relevant entries for this period. Failure to comply could lead Commerce to presume reimbursement occurred and to assess double antidumping duties.
