Mexico Copper Pipe and Tube: Final Results of AD Admin Review

The Commerce Department issued the final results of the antidumping duty administrative review on hand seamless refined copper pipe and tube from Mexico (A-201-838) (here). Commerce determined that both companies under review, GD Affiliates S. de R.L. de C.V. (Golden Dragon) and Nacional de Cobre, S.A. de C.V. (Nacobre), did not undersell subject merchandise during the period of review, assigning each a zero percent AD duty rate. Subject merchandise from Golden Dragon or Nacobre entered between Nov. 1, 2012 and Oct. 31, 2013 will be liquidated without any assessment of AD duties, and future entries of subject merchandise exported by either of the two companies will not be subject to AD duty cash deposit requirements until further notice. Changes to cash deposit rates from these final results take effect June 12.
