U.S. Finds Dumping of Chinese Mobile Access Equipment for 2023-2024

Estimated reading time: 4–6 minutes

The U.S. Department of Commerce has announced the preliminary results of its review on certain mobile access equipment and subassemblies from China. This comes from a notice published in the Federal Register on August 8, 2025, Volume 90, Issue 151.

What Products Are Covered?

The review covers mobile access equipment (MAE) and their parts (subassemblies) made in China. The scope of these products is described in detail in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.

Which Companies Are Reviewed?

At first, five companies were included. After Xuzhou Construction Machinery Group Imp. & Exp. Co., Ltd. (Xuzhou) withdrew their request for review, four companies remain:

• Zhejiang Dingli Machinery Co., Ltd. (Dingli)
• Hunan Sinoboom Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd.
• Terex (Changzhou) Machinery Co., Ltd.
• Oshkosh JLG (Tianjin) Equipment Technology Co., Ltd.

Dingli was picked as a mandatory respondent.

What Did Commerce Find?

Commerce found that some companies sold MAE in the U.S. at prices below the normal value (dumping) between April 1, 2023, and March 31, 2024.

The preliminary dumping margin rates found are as follows:

China-Wide Entity Rate

The China-wide entity is not under this review because no party asked for it. The China-wide rate remains at 165.14 percent.

Process and Methodology

Commerce reviewed the sales data from each company following U.S. law. The full method is detailed in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum, available to the public at https://access.trade.gov and https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.

Public Comments

Interested parties can submit written comments within 21 days from the notice date. Rebuttal briefs may be filed five days later. Parties should include an executive summary and a table of contents for each issue. Hearings may be requested within 30 days after the notice publication.

Assessment and Cash Deposits

After final results, Commerce and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will assess duties on the entries. If the dumping margin is zero or very low (less than 0.50 percent), Commerce will ask CBP to not collect duties.

New cash deposit rates will apply after the final results are published. Companies in this review that get a separate rate will have a cash deposit rate equal to their dumping margin. For other exporters not reviewed, the rate will stay the same as before.

Next Steps

Commerce aims to finalize these results within 120 days, as required by law. Instructions for duty assessment will be given after the final results.

Importers: Reminder

Importers must file a certificate about duty reimbursement. Not filing could lead to extra duties.

This notice was signed by Christopher Abbott, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations.
