Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service
System (ACCESS) during the Federal Government
[[Page 10080]]
shutdown, on November 24, 2025, Commerce tolled all deadlines in

Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the letters in lieu of case and rebuttal
briefs filed by parties in this administrative review are addressed in
the Issues and Decision Memorandum and listed in the appendix to this
notice. The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public document and is
on file electronically via ACCESS. ACCESS is available to registered
users at <a href="https://access.trade.gov">https://access.trade.gov</a>. In addition, a complete version of
the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed at <a href="https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx">https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx</a>.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on the comments received from interested parties regarding
our Preliminary Results, and for the reasons explained in the Issues
and Decision Memorandum, we made certain changes for the final results
of review.
Final Results of Review
We determine that the following estimated weighted-average dumping
margin exists for the period October 1, 2023, through September 30,
2024:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-
average dumping
Producer/exporter margin
(percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tata Steel Ijmuiden BV................................. 5.67
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disclosure
We intend to disclose the calculations performed in connection with
these final results of review to interested parties in this review
within five days after public announcement of the final results or, if
there is no public announcement, within five days of the date of
publication of this notice in the Federal Register, in accordance with
19 CFR 351.224(b).
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), Commerce has determined, 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.
Because TSIJ's weighted-average dumping margin is not zero or de
minimis (i.e., less than 0.50 percent) in the final results of this
review, we calculated an importer-specific assessment rate based on the
ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for each importer's
examined sales and the total entered value of those same sales in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).\7\ Where an importer-specific
assessment rate is zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent),
the entries by that importer will be liquidated without regard to
antidumping duties. The final results of this administrative review
shall be the basis for the assessment of antidumping duties on entries
of merchandise covered by the final results of this review and for
future deposits of estimated duties, where applicable.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ 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 Duty Proceedings; Final Modification, 77 FR 8101
(February 14, 2012).
\8\ See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by the
individually examined respondent for which it did not know that the
merchandise it sold to the intermediary (e.g., a reseller, trading
company, or exporter) was destined for the United States, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all-others rate if
there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the
transaction.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ For a full discussion of this practice, 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 35 days after the date of publication of the final results of this
review in the Federal Register. 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
Upon publication of this notice in the Federal Register, the
following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all shipments
of hot-rolled steel from the Netherlands 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
the company subject to this review will be equal to the company-
specific weighted-average dumping margin established in the final
results of the review; (2) for merchandise exported by companies not
covered in this review but covered in a prior completed segment of this
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 investigation, but the producer has been covered
in a prior completed segment of this proceeding, then the cash deposit
rate will be the rate established in the completed segment for the most
recent period for the producer of the merchandise; (4) the cash deposit
rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be 3.73
percent, the all-others rate established in the investigation.\10\
These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect
until further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\10\ See Order, 81 FR at 67963, 67965.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this POR. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement
of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double
antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Order (APO)
This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to
an APO of their responsibility concerning the disposition of
proprietary information
[[Page 10081]]
disclosed under the 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 or
destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order
is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms
of an APO is a violation which is subject to sanction.
Notification to Interested Parties
Commerce is issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
Dated: February 24, 2026.

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing
Duty Operations.
