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 carbon steel flat products from China (A-570-865). Commerce found all five exporters under review -- Baosteel Group Corporation; Shanghai Baosteel International Economic & Trading Co., Ltd.; Baoshan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd.; Shanghai Meishan Iron & Steel; and Union Steel China -- did not demonstrate independence from state control, assigning them a China-wide AD duty rate of 90.83%. Commerce will assess AD duties at this rate on subject merchandise exported by these five companies and entered between Nov. 1, 2016, and Oct. 31, 2017. A 90.83% AD duty cash deposit rate takes effect Sept. 17 for subject merchandise exported by each of these five companies.

For any other exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all exporters of subject merchandise except the five listed above), cash deposit rates will remain at the level set in the most recent review of each respective company. For companies that have never been assigned a cash deposit rate by Commerce, the China-wide rate applies.
(The review period is 11/01/16 - 10/31/17. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 1806290014 for the preliminary results of this administrative review.)
