On 09/21/2026 Commerce published in the Federal Register (91 FR 59760) its preliminary determination of sales at less than fair value and preliminary affirmative critical circumstances in the antidumping duty investigation of tin mill products from the People's Republic of China. 2. The merchandise covered by this investigation has changed. The products within the scope of the investigation are tin mill flat-rolled products that are coated or plated with tin, chromium, or chromium oxides. Flat-rolled steel products coated with tin are known as tinplate. Flat-rolled steel products coated with chromium or chromium oxides are known as tin-free steel or electrolytic chromium-coated steel. The scope includes all the noted tin mill products regardless of thickness, width, form (in coils or cut sheets), coating type (electrolytic or otherwise), edge (trimmed, untrimmed or further processed, such as scroll cut), coating thickness, surface finish, temper, coating metal (tin, chromium, chromium oxide), reduction (single- or double-reduced), and whether or not coated with a plastic material. Excluded from the scope of the investigation is certain single-reduced electrolytically chromium-coated steel tape for use as an armoring and shielding layer for fiber optic and telecommunications cables (commonly known in the industry as "copolymer coated steel tape"). Such excluded certain single-reduced electrolytically chromium-coated steel tape is excluded only if it meets all seven (7) of the below requirements: (1) Single-reduced electrolytically chromium-coated steel, (2) Actual thickness of 0.160 mm or less (55-pound base box weight), (3) Type MR steel, (4) T2-T3 temper, (5) With a tensile range of 45-57 KSI or 310.20-393.00 Mpa, (6) 15% minimum elongation, and (7) 0.06-012 g/m2 chromium coating. The merchandise subject to the investigation is currently classified in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), under HTSUS subheadings 7210.11.0000, 7210.12.0000, 7210.50.0020, 7210.50.0090, 7212.10.0000, 7212.50.0000, if of non-alloy steel and under HTSUS subheadings 7225.99.0090, and 7226.99.0180 if of alloy steel. Although the subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope of the investigation is dispositive. 3. This proceeding has been assigned case number A-570-228. 4. Commerce has determined that critical circumstances exist for imports of tin mill products from the People's Republic of China. Accordingly, for imports of such merchandise, CBP shall suspend liquidation of such shipments entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after 06/23/2026 (90 days prior to the date of FR publication of the preliminary determination). Effective 06/23/2026, for entries of tin mill products from the exporter listed below, CBP shall require a cash deposit equal to the percentage of entered value listed below: Exporter: China-Wide Entity Case number: A-570-228-000 Cash deposit rate: 130.17% 5.
