Silicon Metal From Bosnia-Herzegovina, Iceland, Kazakhstan, and Malaysia; Scheduling of Expedited Five-Year Reviews

Brief takeaway: The ITC is running expedited five-year (sunset) reviews on existing antidumping and countervailing duty orders covering silicon metal, which may affect whether those duties continue.

What changed: According to the notice, the Commission has scheduled expedited reviews under the Tariff Act of 1930 to decide whether revoking the antidumping and countervailing duty orders on silicon metal would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury. The notice indicates the orders remain in place while the reviews proceed; it does not state a final outcome.

Who's affected: The notice names silicon metal as the product under review. It cites four countries of origin: Bosnia-Herzegovina, Iceland, Kazakhstan, and Malaysia. The notice does not specify HTS codes.

What to review:
- Review whether your imported product may fall within the scope of "silicon metal" as described in the underlying orders.
- Confirm the country of origin of your goods against the four origins named in the notice.
- Check with your customs broker whether existing antidumping or countervailing duties may currently apply to your entries.
- Review your entry records and any case numbers or duty deposit rates with your broker to track how the review's outcome could affect future entries.
