SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On January 28, 2026, Commerce published the Preliminary Results of
the 2023-2024 administrative review of the antidumping Order on nails
from China in the Federal Register and invited parties to comment.\1\
We received no comments from interested parties on the Preliminary
Results, and thus we have made no changes to the Preliminary Results.
Accordingly, no decision memoranda accompany this Federal Register
notice, and the Preliminary Results are hereby adopted as these final
results. Commerce conducted this administrative review in accordance
with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).
The current deadline for the final results of this review is May 28,
2026.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ See Certain Steel Nails from the People's Republic of China:
Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and
Rescission, in Part, of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review;
2023-2024, 91 FR 3707 (January 28, 2026) (Preliminary Results), and
accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum (PDM); see also Notice
of Antidumping Duty Order: Certain Steel Nails from the People's
Republic of China, 73 FR 44961 (August 1, 2008) (Order).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scope of the Order
The products covered by the Order are nails from China. For a full
description of the scope of the Order, see the Preliminary Results PDM.
China-Wide Entity
As stated in the Preliminary Results, because no party requested a
review of the China-wide entity, the entity is not under review and the
China-wide entity's rate, i.e., 118.04 percent, is not subject to
change.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ See Preliminary Results, 91 FR at 3708.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Results of Administrative Review
For the company subject to this review, which established its
eligibility for a separate rate, Commerce determines that the following
estimated weighted-average dumping margin exists for the period from
August 1, 2023, through July 31, 2024:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ In the Preliminary Results, we determined that Shanghai
Yueda and Chuzhou Yueda comprise a single entity. As no parties
challenged this determination, we continue to determine that these
companies comprise a single entity for these final results. See
Memorandum, ``Preliminary Affiliation and Single Entity
Determination,'' dated January 16, 2026.

Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations
of the final results of an administrative review within five days of a
public announcement or, if there is no public announcement, within five
days of the date of publication of the notice of final results in the
Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). However,
because we made no changes from the Preliminary Results, there are no
calculations to disclose.
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) 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. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), for Yueda Nails, we
calculated customer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates based on
the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for each customer's
examined sales and the total entered value of the sales. Where a
customer-specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis (i.e., less
than 0.5 percent), the entries by that customer will be liquidated
without regard to antidumping duties. For entries of subject
merchandise during the POR produced by Yueda Nails for which they did
not know their merchandise was destined for the United States, we
intend to instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at the China-wide rate
if there is no rate for the intermediate company or companies involved
in the transaction. 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.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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
[[Page 29114]]
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 of these final results for all shipments of the subject
merchandise from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the publication date, as provided by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) for Yueda Nails, the cash deposit rate
will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin listed in the
table above; (2) for previously examined Chinese and non-Chinese
exporters not listed above that received a separate rate in a prior
completed segment of this proceeding, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the existing exporter-specific cash deposit rate; (3)
for all Chinese exporters of subject merchandise that have not been
found to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be
the rate for the China-wide entity (i.e., 118.04 percent); and (4) for
all non-Chinese exporters of subject merchandise which have not
received their own separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the
rate applicable to the Chinese exporter that supplied that non-Chinese
exporter. These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain
in effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice also 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 has occurred and the subsequent assessment of
double antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Order (APO)
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to an 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 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
We are issuing and publishing these final results of review in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.221(b)(5).
Dated: May 13, 2026.
