The U.S. Department of Commerce has amended the final results of an administrative review involving Nagase & Co., Ltd. related to the antidumping duty on glycine from Japan for the period between October 31, 2018, and May 31, 2020. This amendment comes after a settlement agreement was reached between Nagase and the United States, which resolves a legal dispute that had previously been appealed up to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. As part of the settlement, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to liquidate entries of the glycine at certain rates determined by the agreement.

The U.S. Department of Commerce is ending a review of countervailing duties on ceramic tiles from China for 2023, because there were no qualifying entries by the company in question. An earlier request to evaluate the exporter, Cayenne Corporation Ltd., was made, but it was found that there were no ceramic tiles imported from them during the review period. As a result, the current cash deposit rates for duties will remain unchanged. This decision was made because there were no goods to assess during the review period, so the review is being fully rescinded.
