    The U.S. Department of Commerce has issued antidumping duty orders on prestressed concrete steel wire strand (PC strand) from eight countries: Argentina, Colombia, Egypt, the Netherlands, Saudi Arabia, Taiwan, Turkey, and the UAE. This action is based on findings that these imported products were sold in the U.S. at less-than-fair-value (LTFV) and caused material injury to industries in the U.S. Antidumping duties will be collected on these imports, effective from September 30, 2020. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection will enforce these duties and require cash deposits for estimated duties to protect U.S. industries from unfair global competition.

    The Department of Commerce has reviewed sales of prestressed concrete steel wire strand (PC Strand) from The Siam Industrial Wire Co., Ltd. (SIW) of Thailand and preliminarily found that SIW did not sell the product at below-normal value during 2018. This preliminary result indicates a dumping margin of 0.00 percent for SIW for the specified period. Interested parties are invited to comment on these findings, and the Commerce Department will consider these comments before issuing the final results. If the final results remain the same, no antidumping duties would be assessed, and different cash deposit requirements could apply to future shipments.

    Simple Explanation

    The Department of Commerce checked if a company in Thailand was selling some special steel wire at unfairly low prices in 2018, and they found that the company did not do this. So, they might not have to pay extra fees unless things change after people give their opinions.

    The U.S. Department of Commerce concluded that prestressed concrete steel wire strand (PC strand) from Malaysia was sold at prices below normal value in the U.S. from June 2022 to May 2023. The review found that two Malaysian companies, Kiswire and Wei Dat, had dumping margins of 0% and 0.73%, respectively, and set the assessment rates and cash deposit requirements accordingly. Commerce also partially rescinded the review for Southern Steel Sdn. Bhd., as there were no reviewable entries for that company. The final results and administrative details are available on the Federal Register and related government platforms.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. checked the prices of special steel wire from Malaysia and found that one company was selling it a bit too cheaply in the U.S., which isn't allowed. Because of this, the U.S. will make sure future sales are at fair prices by setting rules on how much money should be paid when trading this wire.

Consequently, countervailing duties will be imposed on certain imports entering the United States from September 21, 2020. Cash deposits will be required to enforce these duties until further notice, with specific provisions for provisional measures.

    The U.S. Department of Commerce issued a correction to a previously published notice regarding the final determination of sales of prestressed concrete steel wire strand from Turkey at less than fair value. The initial notice did not accurately reflect the adjusted cash deposit rates after accounting for export subsidies. The corrected rates are important for the calculation of cash deposits and potential refunds for importers. This correction ensures compliance with the antidumping and countervailing duty regulations.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. government found that a type of steel wire from Turkey was sold in America for cheaper than it should be, and they made a mistake in how they calculated the extra money companies need to pay to even things out. They fixed the mistake so the rules are fair for everyone.
