The U.S. Department of Commerce determined that aluminum wire and cable completed in Vietnam using materials from China are not subject to antidumping and countervailing duty orders from China. However, they found that these imports are circumventions of those orders. Consequently, the Commerce Department has ordered that any such imports from Vietnam will face suspension of liquidation and cash deposits for duties. Certain companies, like Tanghenam, are precluded from certifying goods as free of Chinese inputs, and failure to properly certify may result in duties being applied.

On December 18, 2024, the U.S. Court of International Trade issued a decision that resulted in changes to the countervailing duty (CVD) rates for Risen Energy Co., Ltd., a producer from China involved in exporting crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells to the U.S. This decision overruled a previous finding by the U.S. Department of Commerce regarding subsidies provided to Risen Energy, specifically removing a 5.46% rate related to the Export Buyer's Credit Program. The Department of Commerce is amending the final results of its administrative review to reflect this decision and will adjust cash deposit instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection accordingly.

The U.S. Department of Commerce has conducted an expedited review to check if removing the antidumping duty for mattresses imported from China would lead to unfair pricing, known as dumping. They found that if the duties were revoked, dumping would likely continue, with rates potentially reaching up to 1,731.75%. This review was carried out without any response from interested parties in China and involves several U.S. companies and organizations that filed to maintain the duties. The decision was made based on legal frameworks and previous data on the issue.

The Department of Commerce has reviewed sales of cast iron soil pipe fittings from China and found that Wor-Biz Industrial Product Co., Ltd. sold these products below normal value from February 20, 2018, to July 31, 2019.

Based on the review's final results, only Wor-Biz received a specific dumping margin, which is applied to other eligible companies. The notice also outlines the processes for assessing antidumping duties and managing cash deposits and provides instructions for importers and parties with protective orders.

The United States International Trade Commission ("Commission") determined that removing existing countervailing and antidumping duty orders on steel racks from China would likely cause harm to the U.S. steel rack industry.
