SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On August 29, 2025, Commerce published its affirmative final
determinations in the LTFV investigations of CORE from Australia,
Brazil, Canada, Mexico, the Netherlands, South Africa, Taiwan,
T[uuml]rkiye, the United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam in accordance with
sections 735(d) and 777(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
Act).\1\ In the LTFV investigations of CORE from Brazil and Mexico,
interested parties timely alleged that Commerce made certain
ministerial errors. See ``Amendment to the Brazil Final Determination
of Sales at Less than Fair Value'' and ``Amendment to the Mexico Final
Determination of Sales at Less than Fair Value'' sections below for
further discussion.

On November 28, 2025, pursuant to sections 735(d) of the Act, the
ITC notified Commerce of its final affirmative determinations that an
industry in the United States is materially injured within the meaning
of section 735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act by reason of dumped imports of
CORE from Australia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, the Netherlands, South
Africa, Taiwan, T[uuml]rkiye, the United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam.\2\

Scope of the Orders
The product covered by these orders is CORE from Australia, Brazil,
Canada, Mexico, the Netherlands, South Africa, Taiwan, T[uuml]rkiye,
the United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam. For a complete description of
the scope of the orders, see the appendix to this notice.
Amendment to the Final Determination of Sales at LTFV for Brazil
We determine that we made a ministerial error in the final
determination of sales at LTFV for Brazil. Pursuant to 19 CFR
351.224(e), and as explained further in the Brazil Ministerial Error
Memorandum,\3\ Commerce is amending the Brazil Final Determination to
reflect the correction of a ministerial error.\4\ Correction of this
error changes the final AD adjusted cash deposit rate for Usiminas
Siderugicas de Minas Gerais S.A., as well as the cash deposit rate for
all other producers and exporters not individually investigated. The
revised rates are listed in the ``Estimated Weighted-Average Dumping
Margins'' section, below.

Amendment to the Final Determination of Sales at LTFV for Mexico
We determine that we made a ministerial error in the final
determination of sales at LTFV for Mexico. Pursuant to 19 CFR
351.224(e), and as explained further in the Mexico Ministerial Error
Memorandum,\5\ Commerce is amending the Mexico Final Determination to
reflect the correction of a ministerial error.\6\ Correction of this
error changes the final AD adjusted cash deposit rate for Galvasid S.A.
de C.V./Perfiles LM, S.A. de C.V., as well as the cash deposit rate for
all other producers and exporters not individually investigated. The
revised rates are listed in the ``Estimated Weighted-Average Dumping

AD Orders
Based on the above-referenced affirmative final determinations, in
accordance with section 735(c)(2) of the Act, Commerce is issuing these
AD orders. Because the ITC determined that an industry in the United
States is materially injured by reason of imports of CORE from
Australia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, the Netherlands, South Africa,
Taiwan, T[uuml]rkiye, the United Arab
[[Page 59495]]
Emirates, and Vietnam, unliquidated entries of such merchandise from
these countries, entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption,
are subject to the assessment of antidumping duties.
Therefore, in accordance with section 736(a)(1) of the Act,
Commerce will direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to
assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, antidumping duties equal
to the amount by which the normal value of the merchandise exceeds the
export price (or constructed export price) of the merchandise on all
relevant entries of CORE from Australia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, the
Netherlands, South Africa, Taiwan, T[uuml]rkiye, the United Arab
Emirates, and Vietnam. Antidumping duties will be assessed on
unliquidated entries of CORE entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after April 10, 2025, the date of publication of the
Preliminary Determinations,\7\ but will not include entries occurring
after the expiration of the provisional measures period and before
publication of the ITC's final injury determination, as further
described below.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposits
In accordance with section 736 of the Act, Commerce intends to
instruct CBP to reinstitute the suspension of liquidation and continue
the suspension of liquidation, as applicable, on all relevant entries
of CORE from Australia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, the Netherlands, South
Africa, Taiwan, T[uuml]rkiye, the United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam,
effective on the date of publication of the ITC's final affirmative
injury determination in the Federal Register. Commerce also intends to
instruct CBP to require cash deposits equal to the estimated weighted-
average dumping margins indicated in the table below. These
instructions suspending liquidation and cash deposit requirements will
remain in effect until further notice.
Commerce also intends to instruct CBP to require cash deposits
equal to the estimated weighted-average dumping margins indicated in
the tables below, adjusted by the relevant subsidy offsets.
Accordingly, effective on the date of publication in the Federal
Register of the notice of the ITC's final affirmative injury
determination, CBP will require, at the same time as importers would
normally deposit estimated customs duties on subject merchandise, a
cash deposit equal to the dumping rates listed in the tables below. The
all-others rate for each country applies to all producers or exporters
not specifically listed, as appropriate.
Critical Circumstances
Because the final critical circumstances determination for CORE
from the United Arab Emirates was negative, in accordance with section
735(c)(3) of the Act, we will instruct CBP to terminate the retroactive
suspension of liquidation ordered at the Preliminary Determination for
all other producers/exporters and to refund any cash deposits required
with respect to entries of subject merchandise covered by the
retroactive suspension of liquidation.

Provisional Measures
Section 733(d) of the Act states that suspension of liquidation
pursuant to an affirmative preliminary determination may not remain in
effect for more than four months, except where exporters representing a
significant proportion of exports of the subject merchandise request
that Commerce extend the four-month period to no more than six months.
At the request of exporters that accounted for a significant proportion
of exports of CORE from Australia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, the
Netherlands, South Africa, Taiwan, T[uuml]rkiye, the United Arab
Emirates, and Vietnam, Commerce extended the four-month period to no
more than six-months.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ See Preliminary Determinations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the underlying investigations, Commerce published the
Preliminary Determinations on April 10, 2025. Therefore, the six-month
period beginning on the date of the publication of the AD Preliminary
Determinations ended on October 6, 2025. Therefore, in accordance with
section 733(d) of the Act and our practice, Commerce will instruct CBP
to terminate the suspension of liquidation and to liquidate, without
regard to antidumping duties, unliquidated entries of CORE from
Australia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, the Netherlands, South Africa,
Taiwan, T[uuml]rkiye, the United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after October 7, 2025,
the day on which the provisional AD measures expired, until and through
the day preceding the date of publication of the ITC's final injury
determinations in the Federal Register. Suspension of liquidation and
the collection of cash deposits will resume on the date of publication
of the ITC's final determinations in the Federal Register.
Establishment of the Annual Inquiry Service Lists
On September 20, 2021, Commerce published the Final Rule in the
Federal Register.\9\ On September 27, 2021, Commerce also published the
Procedural Guidance in the Federal Register.\10\ The Final Rule and
Procedural Guidance provide that Commerce will maintain an annual
inquiry service list for each order or suspended investigation, and any
interested party submitting a scope ruling application or request for
circumvention inquiry shall serve a copy of the application or request
on the persons on the annual inquiry service list for that order, as
well as any companion order covering the same merchandise from the same
country of origin.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ See Regulations to Improve Administration and Enforcement of
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Laws, 86 FR 52300 (September 20,
2021) (Final Rule).
\10\ See Scope Ruling Application; Annual Inquiry Service List;
and Informational Sessions, 86 FR 53205 (September 27, 2021)
(Procedural Guidance).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In accordance with the Procedural Guidance, for orders published in
the Federal Register after November 4, 2021, Commerce will create an
annual inquiry service list segment in Commerce's online e-filing and
document management system, Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Electronic Service System (ACCESS), available at <a href="https://access.trade.gov">https://access.trade.gov</a>, within five business days of publication of the
notice of the order. Each annual inquiry service list will be saved in
ACCESS, under each case number, and under a specific segment type
called ``AISL-Annual Inquiry Service List.'' \11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ This segment will be combined with the ACCESS Segment
Specific Information (SSI) field which will display the month in
which the notice of the order or suspended investigation was
published in the Federal Register, also known as the anniversary
month. For example, for an order under case number A-000-000 that
was published in the Federal Register in January, the relevant
segment and SSI combination will appear in ACCESS as ``AISL-January
Anniversary.'' Note that there will be only one annual inquiry
service list segment per case number, and the anniversary month will
be pre-populated in ACCESS.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[[Page 59498]]
Interested parties who wish to be added to the annual inquiry
service list for an order must submit an entry of appearance to the
annual inquiry service list segment for the order in ACCESS within 30
days after the date of publication of the order. For ease of
administration, Commerce requests that law firms with more than one
attorney representing interested parties in an order designate a lead
attorney to be included on the annual inquiry service list. Commerce
will finalize the annual inquiry service list within five business days
thereafter. As mentioned in the Procedural Guidance,\12\ the new annual
inquiry service list will be in place until the following year, when
the Opportunity Notice for the anniversary month of the order is
published.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\12\ See Procedural Guidance, 86 FR at 53206.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commerce may update an annual inquiry service list at any time as
needed based on interested parties' amendments to their entries of
appearance to remove or otherwise modify their list of members and
representatives, or to update contact information. Any changes or
announcements pertaining to these procedures will be posted to the
ACCESS website.
Special Instructions for the Petitioners and Foreign Governments
In the Final Rule, Commerce stated that, ``after an initial request
and placement on the annual inquiry service list, both petitioners and
foreign governments will automatically be placed on the annual inquiry
service list in the years that follow.'' \13\ Accordingly, as stated
above, the petitioners and the Governments of Australia, Brazil,
Canada, Mexico, the Netherlands, South Africa, Taiwan, T[uuml]rkiye,
the United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam should submit their initial
entries of appearance after publication of this notice in order to
appear in the first annual inquiry service lists for these orders.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.225(n)(3), the petitioners and the Governments
of Australia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, the Netherlands, South Africa,
Taiwan, T[uuml]rkiye, the United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam will not
need to resubmit their entries of appearance each year to continue to
be included on the annual inquiry service list. However, the
petitioners and the Governments of Australia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico,
the Netherlands, South Africa, Taiwan, T[uuml]rkiye, the United Arab
Emirates, and Vietnam are responsible for making amendments to their
entries of appearance during the annual update to the annual inquiry
service list in accordance with the procedures described above.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\13\ See Final Rule, 86 FR at 52335.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice constitutes the AD orders with respect to CORE from
Australia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, the Netherlands, South Africa,
Taiwan, T[uuml]rkiye, the United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam, pursuant
to section 736(a) of the Act. Interested parties can find a list of AD
and countervailing duty orders currently in effect at <a href="https://enforcement.trade.gov/stats/iastats1.html">https://enforcement.trade.gov/stats/iastats1.html</a>.
The amended Brazil and Mexico final determinations and these AD
orders are published in accordance with sections 735(e) and 736(a) of
the Act, 19 CFR 351.224(e), and 19 CFR 351.211(b).

Appendix
Scope of the Orders
The products covered by these orders are certain flat-rolled
steel products, either clad, plated, or coated with corrosion-
resistant metals such as zinc, aluminum, or zinc-, aluminum-,
nickel- or iron-based alloys, whether or not corrugated or painted,
varnished, laminated, or coated with plastics or other non-metallic
substances in addition to the metallic coating. The products covered
include coils that have a width of 12.7 mm or greater, regardless of
form of coil (e.g., in successively superimposed layers, spirally
oscillating, etc.). The products covered also include products not
in coils (e.g., in straight lengths) of a thickness less than 4.75
mm and a width that is 12.7 mm or greater and that measures at least
10 times the thickness. The products covered also include products
not in coils (e.g., in straight lengths) of a thickness of 4.75 mm
or more and a width exceeding 150 mm and measuring at least twice
the thickness. The products described above may be rectangular,
square, circular, or other shape and include products of either
rectangular or non-rectangular cross-section where such cross-
section is achieved subsequent to the rolling process, i.e.,
products which have been ``worked after rolling'' (e.g., products
which have been beveled or rounded at the edges).
For purposes of the width and thickness requirements referenced
above:
(1) Where the nominal and actual measurements vary, a product is
within the scope if application of either the nominal or actual
measurement would place it within the scope based on the definitions
set forth above, and
(2) where the width and thickness vary for a specific product
(e.g., the thickness of certain products with non-rectangular cross-
section, the width of certain products with non-rectangular shape,
etc.), the measurement at its greatest width or thickness applies.
Steel products included in the scope of these orders are
products in which: (1) iron predominates, by weight, over each of
the other contained elements; and (2) the carbon content is 2
percent or less, by weight.
Subject merchandise also includes corrosion-resistant steel that
has been further processed in a third country, including but not
limited to annealing, tempering, painting, varnishing, trimming,
cutting, punching and/or slitting or any other processing that would
not otherwise remove the merchandise from the scope of the orders if
performed in the country of manufacture of the in-scope corrosion
resistant steel.
