The US Department of Commerce determined that a Taiwanese producer, Shin Yang Steel, made sales of circular welded carbon steel pipes in the US at less than the fair value during the period of review (POR) May 1, 2018, through April 30, 2019.
In its final results of the investigation, Commerce assigned an antidumping (AD) duty of 1.71pc to Shin Yang for sales made during the POR. Commerce will instruct US Customs and Border Protection to collect cash deposits equivalent to the AD margin assigned, after which the entries related to Shin Yang’s merchandise will be liquidated.
Commerce noted that an all-others cash deposit rate of 9.70pc will be applicable for exporters from Taiwan apart from Shin Yang.
