U.S. Commerce Department Corrects Metal Locker Antidumping Rate for China

Estimated reading time: 2–3 minutes

The United States Department of Commerce (Commerce) has made a correction about the cash deposit rate for metal lockers and parts from China. This update was published in the Federal Register on June 11, 2025.

The mistake was found in a previous notice from April 16, 2025. That notice was about the final results for the 2022–2023 review of the antidumping duty order on certain metal lockers and parts from China.

Commerce said it had listed the China-wide cash deposit rate as 322.25 percent. This was not correct. The actual existing cash deposit rate for the China-wide entity is 311.71 percent.

Because of the mistake, Commerce will issue new liquidation instructions. These new instructions will have the correct China-wide rate of 311.71 percent.

The correction applies to the “China-Wide Entity” section from the April 16, 2025, notice. The correct number—311.71 percent—is now the official cash deposit rate for the China-wide entity.

This notice was signed on June 5, 2025, by Christopher Abbott. He is the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations at the International Trade Administration.

This update follows rules under section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
