Commerce Hits Chinese Bedroom Furniture with Antidumping Duties Again
Published Date: 8/12/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) continues to determine that 11 companies under review did not establish their entitlement to a separate rate and are thus part of the People's Republic of China (China)-wide entity and subject to the China-wide entity rate. The period review (POR) is January 1, 2024, through December 31, 2024.
Analyzed Economic Effects
4 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 4 costs, 0 mixed.
11 Firms Hit With 216.01% China Rate
Commerce found 11 named companies are part of the China-wide entity for wooden bedroom furniture for the period January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024. Those companies are subject to the China-wide dumping margin and cash deposit rate of 216.01 percent as stated in the final results.
CBP to Liquidate and Assess Duties After 35 Days
Commerce intends to instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess antidumping duties and to liquidate entries of subject merchandise from the listed companies at the China-wide rate no earlier than 35 days after this notice (publication date August 12, 2026). If a timely summons is filed at the U.S. Court of International Trade, CBP will not liquidate until the time to request a statutory injunction has expired (within 90 days of publication).
216.01% Cash Deposit Rule Effective on Publication
Effective on publication (August 12, 2026), cash deposit requirements apply for shipments of subject merchandise from China entered or withdrawn for consumption on or after the publication date. For China exporters that do not have a separate rate, including those that failed to establish eligibility in this review, the cash deposit rate will be 216.01 percent; exporters with a separate rate keep their existing cash deposit rate.
Importers Must File Reimbursement Certificate
Importers must file a certificate about reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this period of review, under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2). If importers fail to file the certificate, Commerce may presume reimbursement occurred and assess double antidumping duties.
