China Hot-Rolled Steel: Final Results of AD Admin Review

The Commerce Department issued the final results of the antidumping duty administrative review on hot-rolled steel flat products from China (A-570-865) (here). Commerce continued to find the only respondent, Baosteel, had no shipments of subject merchandise to the U.S. during the period of review. As such, Baosteel's AD cash deposit rate will remain at the rate set for the company. Baosteel includes the affiliated companies Baosteel Group Corporation; Shanghai Baosteel International Economic & Trading Co., Ltd.; and Baoshan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd.

Because Commerce found that Baosteel had no shipments of subject merchandise during the period under review, any suspended entries that entered under Baosteel's antidumping duty case number will be assessed AD duties at the 90.83% rate China-wide, it said.

(The review period is 11/01/12 -- 10/31/13. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 14072908">14072908 for summary of the preliminary results.)
