    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 Commerce also partially rescinded the review for Southern Steel Sdn.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.

    The U.S. Department of Commerce has completed an annual review of stainless steel sheet and strip in coils from Taiwan, determining that certain producers/exporters sold products at less than normal value between July 2022 and June 2023. While two companies, YUSCO and Tung Mung, reported no shipments to the U.S. during this period, a margin of 21.10% was assigned to a group of non-examined companies based on adverse findings against the mandatory respondent, Yieh Corporation. The new cash deposit rates will be effective immediately for specified shipments, and importers are reminded of their duties under U.S. regulations.

    Simple Explanation

    The Commerce Department checked the prices of some steel sheets from Taiwan for a year and found that they were sold cheaper than they should have been, like selling things for less than what they cost. Some companies didn't send any steel to the U.S. during this time, and now other companies have to pay extra charges because of this price problem.

    The U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) ruled on January 15, 2025, that Commerce's previous findings regarding antidumping duties on circular welded non-alloy steel pipe from Korea were incorrect. Following this, the Department of Commerce amended its results, affecting companies like Husteel and Hyundai, as well as others not individually examined. These adjustments, however, will not alter existing cash deposit rates due to subsequent reviews already being completed. The liquidation of entries remains suspended until any ongoing or future appeals are resolved.

    Simple Explanation

    The court decided that a mistake was made earlier about how much extra tax companies from Korea should pay for selling steel pipes in the U.S., so now they are fixing it for some of those companies.

    The Department of Commerce has completed its review of antidumping duties on uncovered innerspring units from Vietnam for the period from December 1, 2018, to November 30, 2019. The review found that Angkor Spring Co., Ltd. does not qualify for a separate rate and is part of the Vietnam-wide entity with a rate of 116.31%. No changes were made following comments because none were received. The notice also informs importers to comply with the requirements to avoid being presumed as reimbursing antidumping duties, which could lead to double duties.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. government looked at bedsprings from Vietnam and decided a company named Angkor Spring is part of a big group that must pay extra taxes called "duties" because they didn't prove they were different, and these taxes are very high at about 116%.
