    The U.S. Department of Commerce has concluded that ferrosilicon from Kazakhstan is likely being sold at less than fair value in the U.S. market during 2023. Despite finding that critical circumstances do not exist for certain companies, they will continue to suspend liquidation of these goods and require cash deposits for antidumping duties. The U.S. International Trade Commission will make a final decision on whether these imports have injured the domestic industry within 45 days. If such injury is confirmed, duties will be enforced; otherwise, all provisional duties will be refunded.

    The U.S. Department of Commerce has finalized its decision, determining that Brazil is providing illegal subsidies to producers and exporters of ferrosilicon, including companies like Minasligas and Ferbasa, between January and December 2023. Despite some changes and updates, the basic findings have remained consistent since the preliminary determination in September 2024. This decision means that specific companies will face additional duties when exporting ferrosilicon to the United States unless the U.S. International Trade Commission finds that imports of this product do not harm U.S. manufacturers.

As a result, the Department is instructing customs to impose cash deposits on imports from all producers and exporters of ferrosilicon from Kazakhstan. The next steps involve a final decision from the U.S. International Trade Commission about potential injury to the U.S. industry, which will determine whether further duties will be enforced.

    The U.S. Department of Commerce has updated its preliminary findings in an investigation into ferrosilicon imported from Malaysia due to significant calculation errors. The errors affected the dumping margins for two companies, OM Materials Sarawak Sdn. Bhd and Pertama Ferroalloys Sdn. Bhd. These corrections led to a change in the estimated dumping margins, which now impact the cash deposit rates and suspension of liquidation effective December 11, 2024. The revised results indicate that no critical circumstances exist for the involved companies.
