No Shrimp Shipments, So Commerce Cancels the Review
Published Date: 10/29/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce is canceling the review of antidumping duties on frozen shrimp from China for the period February 2025 to January 2026 because no shrimp shipments were found to review. This means importers and exporters involved won’t face new duty changes or extra fees for that time. The decision takes effect on October 29, 2026, keeping things simple and clear for everyone involved.
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.
No new duties for 2025–2026 shrimp entries
Commerce rescinded the antidumping administrative review for certain frozen warmwater shrimp from China for the period February 1, 2025 through January 31, 2026 because U.S. Customs and Border Protection data showed no reviewable, suspended entries during that period. As a result, importers/exporters covered by this review will not face recalculated antidumping rates for that POR; duties will be assessed at the cash deposit rate required at the time of entry. This rescission is effective October 29, 2026.
Assessment instructions and APO return reminder
Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to assess antidumping duties on appropriate entries at rates equal to the cash deposit rate required at the time of entry, and intends to issue those assessment instructions no earlier than 35 days after this rescission is published. Parties subject to an Administrative Protective Order (APO) are reminded to return or destroy proprietary information disclosed under the APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305; failure to comply may lead to sanctions.
