SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On December 5, 2024, Commerce published the Preliminary Results and
invited interested parties to comment on the Preliminary Results.\1\ On
December 9, 2024, Commerce tolled the deadline to issue the final
results in the administrative review by 90 days.\2\ On June 25, 2025,
Commerce extended the final results by 60 days.\3\ Accordingly, the
deadline for these final results is now September 2, 2025.\4\ Commerce
conducted this administrative review in accordance with section 751 of
the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). A summary of the events
that occurred since Commerce published these Preliminary Results, as
well as a full discussion of the issues raised by parties for these
final results, may be found in the Issues and Decision Memorandum.\5\

Results).

Countervailing Duty Proceedings,'' dated December 9, 2024.

Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs filed by
interested parties in this review are addressed in the Issues and
Decision Memorandum. A list of topics in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum is attached as Appendix I to this notice.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on our review of the record and comments received from
interested parties, we made certain changes to the margin calculations
for Tubos de Acero de Mexico S.A. for these final results of review.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ See Issues and Decision Memorandum at Comments 4 and 7; see
also Memorandum, ``Final Analysis Memorandum for Tubos de Acero de
Mexico, S.A.,'' dated concurrently with this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Results of Review
We determine that the following estimated weighted-average dumping
margin exists for the period May 11, 2022, through October 31, 2023:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-
average
Exporter/producer dumping
margin
(percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tubos de Acero de Mexico, S.A.............................. 26.10
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disclosure
We intend to disclose the calculations performed to parties in this
proceeding within five days after the date of publication in the
Federal Register of these final results of review, in accordance with
19 CFR 351.224(b).
Assessment Rate
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), Commerce shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of
this review.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ In these final results, Commerce applied the assessment rate
calculation method adopted in Antidumping Proceedings: Calculation
of the Weighted-Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in
Certain Antidumping Proceedings: Final Modification, 77 FR 8101
(February 14, 2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by the
respondent for which it did not know its merchandise was destined for
the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries
at the all-others rate in the less-than-fair-value investigation if
there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the
transaction.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\10\ See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier
than 41 days after the date of publication of the final results of this
review in the Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 356.8(a). If
a timely summons is filed at the U.S. Court of International Trade, the
assessment instructions will direct CBP not to liquidate relevant
entries until the time for parties to file a request for a statutory
injunction has expired (i.e., within 90 days of publication).
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication in the Federal Register of the final results of this
administrative review for all shipments of the subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the
date of publication, as provided by section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1)
the cash deposit rate for company subject to this review will be equal
to the company-specific weighted-average dumping margin established in
the final results of this administrative review; (2) for merchandise
exported by a company not covered in this review but covered in a prior
segment of the proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be
the company-specific rate published in the completed segment for the
most recent period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this
review, a prior review, or the less-than-fair-value investigation but
the producer is, then the cash deposit rate will be the rate
established in the most recently completed segment of the proceeding
for the producer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for
all other producers or exporters will continue to be 44.93 percent, the
all-others rate established in the less-than-fair-value
investigation.\11\ These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ See Order, 87 FR at 70786.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notification to Importers Regarding the Reimbursement of Duties
This notice also serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding
the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of the
relevant entries during the POR. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement
of antidumping duties did occur and the subsequent assessment of
doubled antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Order (APO)
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to an
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which
continues to govern business proprietary information in this segment of
the proceeding. Timely written notification of the return/destruction
of APO materials, or conversion to judicial protective order, is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and the terms of an
APO is a sanctionable violation.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h) and
19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
Dated: September 2, 2025.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations, performing the
