SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On May 14, 2021, Commerce published in the Federal Register the AD 
orders on mattresses from Cambodia, Malaysia, Serbia, Thailand, the 
Republic of T[uuml]rkiye, and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, and 
the CVD order on mattresses from the People's Republic of China.\1\ On 
April 1, 2026, the ITC instituted,\2\ and

[[Page 70842]]

Commerce initiated,\3\ the first sunset review of the Orders, pursuant 
to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). As a 
result of its reviews, Commerce determined that revocation of the 
Orders would likely lead to the continuation or recurrence of dumping 
and countervailable subsidies, and therefore, notified the ITC of the 
magnitude of the margins of dumping likely to prevail should the Orders 
be revoked.\4\

    On October 27, 2026, the ITC published its determination, pursuant

an industry in the United States within a reasonably foreseeable 
time.\5\

Scope of the Orders

    The products covered by these Orders are all types of youth and 
adult mattresses. The term ``mattress'' denotes an assembly of 
materials that at a minimum includes a ``core,'' which provides the 
main support system of the mattress, and may consist of innersprings, 
foam, other resilient filling, or a combination of these materials. 
Mattresses may also contain: (1) ``upholstery,'' the material between 
the core and the top panel of the ticking on a single-sided mattress; 
or between the core and the top and bottom panel of the ticking on a 
double-sided mattress; and/or (2) ``ticking,'' the outermost layer of 
fabric or other material (e.g., vinyl) that encloses the core and any 
upholstery, also known as a cover.
    The scope of these Orders is restricted to only ``adult 
mattresses'' and ``youth mattresses.'' ``Adult mattresses'' are 
frequently described as ``twin,'' ``extra-long twin,'' ``full,'' 
``queen,'' ``king,'' or ``California king'' mattresses. ``Youth 
mattresses'' are typically described as ``crib,'' ``toddler,'' or 
``youth'' mattresses. All adult and youth mattresses are included 
regardless of size and size description.
    The scope encompasses all types of ``innerspring mattresses,'' 
``non-innerspring mattresses,'' and ``hybrid mattresses.'' 
``Innerspring mattresses'' contain innersprings, a series of metal 
springs joined together in sizes that correspond to the dimensions of 
mattresses. Mattresses that contain innersprings are referred to as 
``innerspring mattresses'' or ``hybrid mattresses.'' ``Hybrid 
mattresses'' contain two or more support systems as the core, such as 
layers of both memory foam and innerspring units.
    ``Non-innerspring mattresses'' are those that do not contain any 
innerspring units. They are generally produced from foams (e.g., 
polyurethane, memory (viscoelastic), latex foam, gel-infused 
viscoelastic (gel foam), thermobonded polyester, polyethylene) or other 
resilient filling.
    Mattresses covered by the scope of these Orders may be imported 
independently, as part of furniture or furniture mechanisms (e.g., 
convertible sofa bed mattresses, sofa bed mattresses imported with sofa 
bed mechanisms, corner group mattresses, day-bed mattresses, roll-away 
bed mattresses, high risers, trundle bed mattresses, crib mattresses), 
or as part of a set in combination with a ``mattress foundation.'' 
``Mattress foundations'' are any base or support for a mattress. 
Mattress foundations are commonly referred to as ``foundations,'' 
``boxsprings,'' ``platforms,'' and/or ``bases.'' Bases can be static, 
foldable, or adjustable. Only the mattress is covered by the scope if 
imported as part of furniture, with furniture mechanisms, or as part of 
a set in combination with a mattress foundation.
    Excluded from the scope of these Orders are ``futon'' mattresses. A 
``futon'' is a bi-fold frame made of wood, metal, or plastic material, 
or any combination thereof, that functions as both seating furniture 
(such as a couch, love seat, or sofa) and a bed. A ``futon mattress'' 
is a tufted mattress, where the top covering is secured to the bottom 
with thread that goes completely through the mattress from the top 
through to the bottom, and it does not contain innersprings or foam. A 
futon mattress is both the bed and seating surface for the futon.
    Also excluded from the scope are airbeds (including inflatable 
mattresses) and waterbeds, which consist of air- or liquid-filled 
bladders as the core or main support system of the mattress.
    Also excluded is certain multifunctional furniture that is 
convertible from seating to sleeping, regardless of filler material or 
components, where that filler material or components are upholstered, 
integrated into the design and construction of, and inseparable from, 
the furniture framing, and the outermost layer of the multifunctional 
furniture converts into the sleeping surface. Such furniture may, and 
without limitation, be commonly referred to as ``convertible sofas,'' 
``sofabeds,'' ``sofa chaise sleepers,'' ``futons,'' ``ottoman 
sleepers'' or a like description.
    Also excluded from the scope of these Orders are any products 
covered by the existing antidumping duty orders on uncovered 
innerspring units from China or Vietnam. See Uncovered Innerspring 
Units from the People's Republic of China: Notice of Antidumping Duty 
Order, 74 FR 7661 (February 19, 2009); Antidumping Duty Order: 
Uncovered Innerspring Units from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, 73 
FR 75391 (December 11, 2008).
    Also excluded from the scope of these Orders are bassinet pads with 
a nominal length of less than 39 inches, a nominal width less than 25 
inches, and a nominal depth of less than 2 inches.
    Additionally, also excluded from the scope of these Orders are 
``mattress toppers.'' A ``mattress topper'' is a removable bedding 
accessory that supplements a mattress by providing an additional layer 
that is placed on top of a mattress. Excluded mattress toppers have a 
height of four inches or less.
    The products subject to these Orders are currently properly 
classifiable under HTSUS subheadings: 9404.21.0010, 9404.21.0013, 
9404.29.1005, 9404.29.1013, 9404.29.9085, and 9404.29.9087. Products 
subject to these Orders may also enter under HTSUS subheadings: 
9404.21.0095, 9404.29.1095, 9404.29.9095, 9401.40.0000, and 
9401.90.5081. Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for 
convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the 
merchandise covered by these Orders is dispositive.

Continuation of the Orders

    As a result of the determinations by Commerce and the ITC that 
revocation of the Orders would likely lead to continuation or 
recurrence of dumping, countervailable subsidies, and material injury 
to an industry in the United States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of 
the Act, Commerce hereby orders the continuation of the Orders. U.S. 
Customs and Border Protection will continue to collect AD and CVD cash 
deposits at the rates in effect at the time of entry for all imports of 
subject merchandise.

[[Page 70843]]

    The effective date of the continuation of the Orders will be 
October 27, 2026.\6\ Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of the Act and 19 
CFR 351.218(c)(2), Commerce intends to initiate the next five-year 
reviews of the Orders not later than 30 days prior to fifth anniversary 
of the date of the last determination by the ITC.
