Commerce Files Nine Final AD/CVD Results as USITC Clears Truck Bed Cover Duties

On November 13, 2026, Commerce placed nine final antidumping and countervailing duty review results on Federal Register public inspection, with new cash-deposit rates for entries from November 16 if publication goes ahead as scheduled. The USITC voted on November 12 to clear a countervailing duty order on Chinese truck bed covers, and Commerce withdrew the wood mouldings final results filed a day earlier.

Nine final AD/CVD review results set new deposit rates from November 16

Filed, not yet in forceCommerce filed nine final administrative-review results for public inspection at 8:45 a.m. ET on November 13, 2026. All are scheduled for Federal Register publication on Monday, November 16, 2026. Each notice says the new cash-deposit rates apply to entries, or withdrawals from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date. Firms that were not reviewed keep their most recent company-specific rate, or the all-others rate if they have none.

Timing. Filed Nov. 13, 2026, 8:45 a.m. ET. Scheduled publication is Nov. 16, 2026, which is also the start of the new deposits. Commerce will send assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after publication, so about Dec. 21, 2026 if published Nov. 16. For Mexican rebar the wait is 41 days, so about Dec. 27, 2026. If a timely summons is filed at the Court of International Trade, liquidation is held for up to 90 days after publication.

For wooden cabinets and vanities, Commerce applied adverse facts available because China's government did not answer the questionnaire on time. Where the producer and the exporter have different rates, the higher rate applies. On the threaded rod from India order, the all-others rate stays at 0.00%, so Nishant's shipments carry no deposit. In the sodium nitrite CVD review, Kronox received Deepak Nitrite's 2.26% rate because Kutch's 63.60% rate rests entirely on facts available.

USITC: truck bed cover CVD order cleared; amine compounds go forward; welded line pipe orders stay

Published vote, Nov. 12All three votes below took place on November 12, 2026, and were announced that day.

  • Truck bed covers from China, Inv. 701-TA-789 (Final). The vote was 4–0 affirmative; Commissioners Thanhauser and Negatu did not take part. Commerce will now issue a countervailing duty order. The report, Pub. 5815, is due by Dec. 22, 2026. USITC news release, Nov. 12, 2026
  • Amine compounds from China, Inv. 701-TA-808 and 731-TA-1809 (Preliminary). The vote was 6–0 affirmative. Commerce continues its AD and CVD investigations. There is no deposit requirement until a Commerce preliminary determination. Pub. 5817 is due by Dec. 18, 2026. USITC news release, Nov. 12, 2026
  • Welded line pipe from South Korea and Turkey, Inv. 701-TA-525 and 731-TA-1260–1261 (second expedited sunset review). The vote was 6–0 affirmative. The AD orders on Korea and Turkey and the CVD order on Turkey remain in place. Pub. 5816 is due by Dec. 21, 2026. USITC news release, Nov. 12, 2026
  • Section 337: spectral flow cytometer systems, Inv. 337-TA-1528. The USITC instituted this investigation on Nov. 12. The complainant is Cytek Biosciences; the respondents are Beckman Coulter, Inc. and Beckman Coulter Biotechnology (Suzhou). Cytek seeks a limited exclusion order and cease-and-desist orders. This is only an institution, and no exclusion order is in effect. The FR notice is on public inspection for Nov. 16 as FR Doc. 2026-23254. USITC news release, Nov. 12, 2026

Correction: wood mouldings final AD results withdrawn before publication

Withdrawn — no deposit changeOn Nov. 12, Commerce filed the final results of the 2024–2025 AD review of wood mouldings and millwork products from China (A-570-117) for publication on Nov. 13. The filing listed 37.24% for Bel Trade Wood Industrial (Youxi) and for Fujian Tim Feng, and 220.87% for the China-wide entity. The Federal Register then posted an editorial note: Commerce asked to withdraw the document after it was placed on public inspection. The document was not published on Nov. 13, and it stays on public inspection only through close of business Nov. 13. FR Doc. 2026-23084 (withdrawn)

Those rates are not in effect. Current deposit rates for this order continue to apply until Commerce publishes a replacement notice. The withdrawal notice does not give a reason or a refiling date.

Ten preliminary review results (no deposit change yet)

Preliminary — deposits change only at finalCommerce also filed the preliminary results below on Nov. 13 for publication on Nov. 16, 2026. They show where final rates may land. Cash deposits change only when the final results are published, usually within 120 days. Case briefs are generally due 21 days after publication, about Dec. 7, 2026; for the AD flanges review they are due 7 days after the last verification report. Hearing requests are due within 30 days, about Dec. 16, 2026. Firms whose review was rescinded will have their entries assessed at the cash-deposit rate in effect at entry. Commerce will send those rescission instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after publication; for Mexican rectangular pipe the wait is 41 days.

Conflict in the notice. In the Vietnam fish fillets notice, Bien Dong's margin is $0.89/kg in the results table but $0.90/kg in the text. Watch the final results for the corrected figure.
