Light-Walled Rectangular Pipe and Tube From China, Mexico, South Korea, and Turkey; Notice of Commission Determination To Conduct Full Five-Year Reviews

Brief takeaway: The ITC is moving forward with full five-year (sunset) reviews to decide whether existing duty orders on light-walled rectangular pipe and tube should stay in place; nothing changes for importers right now.

What changed: According to the notice, the Commission will conduct full reviews under the Tariff Act of 1930 to determine whether revoking these duty orders would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury. The notice states a schedule for the reviews will be established and announced at a later date.

Who's affected: The notice names light-walled rectangular pipe and tube. It cites a countervailing duty order on such products from China, and antidumping duty orders on such products from China, Mexico, South Korea, and Turkey. Specific HTS codes are not stated in the notice.

What to review:
- Review whether your imported pipe and tube may fall within the product scope described in the underlying duty orders.
- Confirm with your customs broker the current antidumping/countervailing duty status and any deposit rates for your goods from the named countries.
- Check for the review schedule the notice says will be announced later, and any deadlines for participation.
- Review your sourcing and origin documentation for products potentially covered by these orders.
