Commerce Determines Antidumping on Tires from Thailand
The U.S. Department of Commerce has shared the final results of its review of anti-dumping duties on passenger vehicle and light truck tires from Thailand. This review covered the period from July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024.
Key Findings
Sentury Tire (Thailand) Co., Ltd. sold tires in the United States at prices that were less than normal value. In contrast, Sumitomo Rubber (Thailand) Co., Ltd. did not sell at prices below the normal value. This means Sentury will face antidumping duties due to their pricing.
Antidumping Duty Rates
The duty rates set by the Commerce Department are 2.90% for Sentury Tire. Sumitomo Rubber will not face duties as their margin was zero. Other companies not selected for individual review will also have a rate of 2.90%.
Assessment and Cash Deposit Requirements
For the entries made during the review period, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will be assessing antidumping duties. If a company didn’t know their products were destined for the U.S., these products will be charged at a rate of 17.06%, which is the all-others rate.
For future shipments, the cash deposit rates are as follows:
- 2.90% for Sentury Tire.
- 0% for Sumitomo Rubber, given their zero-margin rate.
- 2.90% for companies not individually examined.
- 17.06% for those not covered before.
The new cash deposit rates apply to any shipments made on or after July 20, 2026. These rates will remain in effect until further notice from the Commerce Department.
Next Steps
The Department of Commerce has also reminded importers about their duties. They must submit a certificate concerning the reimbursement of antidumping duties for entries during the period of review. The failure to file could lead to presumption of reimbursement and additional duties.
Companies have been advised to follow these new guidelines to avoid legal complications or excess duties as they continue to engage in international trade of tires.
