On 04/27/2026, Commerce determined that seamless oil country tubular goods (OCTG) produced by Boly Pipe Co., Ltd. (Boly Pipe) in Thailand using steel billets from the People's Republic of China (China) and exported to its customers, Commercial Steel Products LLC (CSP) and JOL Tubular, Inc. (JOL Tubular), in the United States are within the scope of the antidumping/countervailing duty orders on OCTG from China (A-570-943/C-570-944).
See 91 FR 22493.
2.
Specifically, Commerce determined that seamless OCTG produced by Boly Pipe in Thailand using steel billets from China and exported to its customers, CSP and JOL Tubular, in the United States are covered by the scope of the AD/CVD orders on OCTG from China because seamless OCTG completed in Thailand from Chinese-origin steel billets was determined to be circumventing the antidumping/countervailing duty orders and, consequently, should be included within the scope of the antidumping/countervailing duty orders.
3.
This final covered merchandise determination is applicable on a country-wide basis, regardless of foreign producer, exporter, or importer.
4a.
Continue to suspend liquidation of entries of seamless OCTG produced by Boly Pipe in Thailand using steel billets from China and exported to its customers, CSP and JOL Tubular, in the United States already subject to the suspension of liquidation under the antidumping/countervailing duty orders on OCTG from China at the cash deposit rate(s) in effect on the date of entry in accordance with message 6007406, dated 01/07/2026.
4b.
For all entries of seamless OCTG produced by Boly Pipe in Thailand using steel billets from China and exported to its customers, CSP and JOL Tubular, in the United States not already subject to the suspension of liquidation, CBP should suspend liquidation of:
(i) shipments entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after 12/18/2024, and (ii) shipments entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption prior to the date of initiation of the covered merchandise inquiry but no earlier than November 4, 2021.
CBP shall require, for such entries, a cash deposit at the applicable rate(s) in effect on the date of entry.
5.
Entries of products covered by subparagraphs 4a and 4b should not be liquidated until specific liquidation instructions are issued.
6.
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.227(l)(5), this instruction does not affect or otherwise limit CBP's independent authority to take any additional action with respect to the suspension of liquidation or related measures.
