Commerce Slaps China-Wide Duties on Aluminum Extrusions
Published Date: 8/17/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) determines that the 18 companies under review of the antidumping duty (AD) order on aluminum extrusions from the People's Republic of China (China), covering the period of review (POR) May 1, 2024, through April 30, 2025, are not eligible to receive a separate rate and are, therefore, part of the China-wide entity.
Analyzed Economic Effects
3 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 3 costs, 0 mixed.
86.01% Duty Applied to Listed Exporters
If you imported aluminum extrusions from any of the 18 companies listed for the period May 1, 2024 through April 30, 2025, Commerce will treat those companies as part of the China-wide entity and instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to assess antidumping duties at an ad valorem rate of 86.01% on those entries. Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions no earlier than 35 days after publication of these final results (publication date August 17, 2026).
Cash Deposit Rate Set at 86.01%
For shipments of the subject aluminum extrusions entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date (August 17, 2026), China exporters that have not been found entitled to a separate rate must post a cash deposit equal to the China-wide rate of 86.01%. Previously examined exporters with separate rates will continue to use their published exporter-specific rates, and non-China exporters without a separate rate must use the rate of the China exporter that supplied them.
Reimbursement Certificate & Double-Duty Risk
If you are an importer, you must file a certificate about reimbursement of antidumping or countervailing duties prior to liquidation of relevant entries under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2). If you fail to file the required certificate, Commerce may presume reimbursement occurred and assess double antidumping duties and/or increase antidumping duties by the amount of countervailing duties.

The U.S. Department of Commerce found that Nan Ya Plastics sold PET film from Taiwan at unfairly low prices from July 2024 to June 2025. Meanwhile, Shinkong companies didn’t have any sales to review during this time. This means some antidumping duties might change soon, and companies involved should pay close attention to upcoming updates and deadlines.

The U.S. Department of Commerce decided to keep extra taxes on melamine imported from China because removing them could let unfair government help continue. This affects Chinese melamine exporters and U.S. manufacturers like Cornerstone Chemical, who benefit from these protections. The decision takes effect October 2, 2026, keeping the playing field fair and protecting American jobs.

The U.S. Department of Commerce is checking if certain aluminum panels made by Shanghai Alumetal in China are sneaking around existing import taxes on aluminum sheets. This means companies importing these panels might face new duties soon, starting October 2, 2026.

The U.S. Department of Commerce fixed a mix-up about certain unfinished carbon steel pipe fittings from China. These partly made fittings, even if finished later in Vietnam, are still covered by U.S. trade rules, and the government will pause money processing on past imports of these items. This affects importers and could impact payments and deadlines retroactively.
