SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On October 3, 2025, Commerce published the Preliminary Results in
the Federal Register and invited comments from interested parties.\1\
On November 3, 2025, TYCSA submitted a case brief.\2\ On December 29,
2025, Insteel Wire Products Company, Sumiden Wire Products Corporation,
and Wire Mesh Corp. (collectively, the petitioners) submitted a
rebuttal brief.\3\

Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2023-
2024, 90 FR 48030 (October 3, 2025) (Preliminary Results), and
accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
\2\ See TYCSA's Letter, ``Case Brief,'' dated November 3, 2025.
\3\ See Petitioners' Letter, ``Petitioners' Rebuttal Brief on
Tycsa,'' dated December 29, 2025.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to the lapse in appropriations and Federal Government shutdown,
on November 14, 2025, Commerce tolled all deadlines in administrative
proceedings by 47 days.\4\ Additionally, due to a backlog of documents
that were electronically filed via Enforcement and Compliance's
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service
System (ACCESS) during the Federal Government shutdown, on November 24,
2025, Commerce tolled all deadlines in administrative proceedings by an
additional 21 days.\5\ Accordingly, the deadline for these final
results is now April 7, 2026.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ See Memorandum, ``Deadlines Affected by the Shutdown of the
Federal Government,'' dated November 14, 2025.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on comments received from interested parties regarding our
Preliminary Results, we made certain changes to the weighted-average
dumping margin calculations for TYCSA.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ For a full description of these changes, see Issues and
Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Results of Review
For these final results, we determine the following weighted-
average dumping margin exists for the period June 1, 2023, through May
30, 2024:

Disclosure
Commerce intends to disclose the calculations performed for TYCSA
in connection with these final results to interested parties within
five days of any public announcement 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.
We calculated importer-specific ad valorem antidumping duty
assessment rates on the basis of the ratio of the total amount of
dumping calculated for the examined sales to the total entered value of
those sales, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). Where either the
respondent's weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimis
within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), or an importer-specific
assessment rate is zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), we
will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard
to antidumping duties.
Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' practice will apply to entries
of subject merchandise during the POR produced by TYCSA for which it
did not know that the merchandise it sold to an intermediary (e.g., a
reseller, trading company, or exporter) was destined for the United
States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed
entries at the all-others rate established in the less-than-fair-value
(LTFV) investigation (i.e., 14.75 percent),\9\ if there is no rate for
the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ See Order, 86 FR at 30000.
\10\ For a full description 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
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all
shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the
final results of this administrative review, as provided by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for the company
listed above will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin that
is established in the final results of this review, except if the rate
is less than 0.50 percent and, therefore, de minimis within the meaning
of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), in which case the cash deposit rate will be
zero; (2) for previously investigated or reviewed companies not listed
above, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific
rate published for the most recently completed segment of this
proceeding in which the company participated; (3) if the exporter is
not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the LTFV
investigation, but the producer is, the cash deposit rate will be the
cash deposit rate established for the most recently completed segment
for the producer of the subject merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit
rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be 14.75
percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation.\11\
These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until
further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ See Order, 86 FR at 30000.

Administrative Protective Order (APO)
This notice serves as the only reminder to parties subject to an
APO of their responsibility concerning the disposition 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 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 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 review period. Failure to comply
with this requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of doubled antidumping duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections
751(a)(1), 751(a)(3), and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: April 7, 2026.
