The US Department of Commerce (DOC) has announced that it has amended the order and the final determination regarding its antidumping investigation on imports of certain hot rolled steel flat products from Japanese steel producer Tokyo Steel, on the grounds that the final determination was not in harmony with the United States Court of International Trade (CIT). Accordingly, the DOC has determined a new dumping margin of 5.20 percent for Tokyo Steel.
In May 2023, the DOC had announced its final determination in the antidumping investigation covering the period between October 1, 2020, and September 30, 2021. The DOC calculated weighted-average dumping margins of 7.72 percent for Tokyo Steel and Nippon Steel Corporation/Nippon Steel Nisshin Co., Ltd./Nippon Steel Trading Corporation.
