Thailand Circular Welded Pipe: Prelim Results of AD Admin Review

The Commerce Department issued the preliminary results of its antidumping duty administrative review on circular welded carbon steel pipes and tubes from Thailand (A-549-502) (here), calculating zero percent AD rates for both companies under review: Saha Thai Steel Pipe (Public) Company, Ltd and Pacific Pipe Company Limited. If the agency's finding is continued in the final results, importers of subject merchandise from Saha Thai or Pacific Pipe entered between March 2013 and February 2014 will not be assessed AD duties, and future entries from Saha Thai and Pacific Pipe will not be subject to an AD cash deposit requirement until further notice.

Export Compliance Daily combines U.S. export control news, foreign border import regulation and policy developments into a single daily information service that reliably informs its trade professional readers about important current issues affecting their operations.

These preliminary results do not change current AD duty rates, and Commerce can modify them in the final results of this review. For now, the most recent final AD rate calculated for each exporter is still applicable. If no final AD duty rate has ever been calculated for a company, then it is subject to the all others rate of 15.67%. The final results of this administrative review are currently due in August.

(The period of review is 03/01/13 -- 02/28/14. See notice for additional information, including the scope of the order, potential cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc.)
