Final Results Issued in 2023–2024 Antidumping Review of Uncoated Paper from Brazil
Estimated reading time: 3–5 minutes
The U.S. Department of Commerce has released the final results of its antidumping duty administrative review on certain uncoated paper from Brazil. The period of review (POR) was from March 1, 2023, through February 29, 2024.
The final determination, published in the Federal Register on January 21, 2026 (Volume 91, Number 13), confirms that Suzano S.A. made sales of uncoated paper to the United States at prices below normal value.
Commerce calculated a weighted-average dumping margin of 14.42 percent for Suzano S.A.
There were no comments submitted after Commerce released its preliminary results on July 10, 2025. As a result, the agency made no changes from the preliminary findings.
This review was conducted under section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended.
The scope of the order includes uncoated paper from Brazil. A full description of the scope is provided in the preliminary decision memorandum referenced in the July 2025 notice.
Commerce has instructed U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess antidumping duties on entries covered by this review.
Because Suzano’s dumping margin is above de minimis (not less than 0.5 percent), importer-specific ad valorem assessment rates will be applied. These are based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping to the total entered value of the sales.
If any importer-specific rate is de minimis or zero, CBP will not assess antidumping duties on those entries.
For entries of uncoated paper that Suzano produced but did not know were going to the U.S., and where there is no specific rate for the intermediary involved, Commerce will apply the “all-others” rate.
Assessment instructions will be issued to CBP no earlier than 35 days after publication of the final findings in the Federal Register.
If a summons is filed with the U.S. Court of International Trade, CBP will be instructed not to liquidate entries until the applicable statutory timeline for injunction requests has expired.
New cash deposit requirements are now in effect as of January 21, 2026:
- Suzano will have a deposit rate of 14.42 percent.
- For companies covered in past reviews but not listed in this review, their previous deposit rates remain in effect.
- If the exporter was not reviewed, but the producer was, the producer’s most recent rate will apply.
- For all other manufacturers or exporters, the “all-others” deposit rate of 27.11 percent will apply, as established in the original less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation.
Importers are reminded of their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to certify whether they were reimbursed for antidumping duties. Failure to make this filing could result in double duties.
Parties subject to an administrative protective order (APO) must properly dispose of proprietary materials as required under 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Written notices confirming this must be submitted timely.
This notice was signed on January 14, 2026, by Christopher Abbott, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations, performing the non-exclusive functions and duties of the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
