Israel Brass Rod: Details of AD/CVD Orders
The Commerce Department on Sept. 26 released antidumping and countervailing duty orders on brass rod from Israel (A-508-814/C-508-815). The orders set permanent antidumping and countervailing duties, which will remain in place unless revoked by Commerce in a sunset or changed circumstances review. Commerce will now begin conducting annual administrative reviews, if requested, to determine final assessments of AD/CVD on importers and make changes to cash deposit rates.

The order details a “gap period” of no CVD liability for subject merchandise entered Jan. 27 through Sept. 25, 2024, and of no AD liability for subject merchandise entered June 11, 2024, through Sept. 25, 2024. Commerce may suspend liquidation for a four-month period only after its preliminary CVD determination, issued Sept. 29, 2023, and for six months after its preliminary AD determination, issued Dec. 14, 2023, without an International Trade Commission final affirmative injury determination in place. Commerce will order CBP to liquidate, without regard to AD or CVD, any entries during these respective gap periods.
Subject merchandise entered during the CVD gap period but outside the AD gap period (i.e., Jan. 27 through June 10, 2024) will only be assessed antidumping duties.
AD/CV Suspension of Liq Instructions
Suspension of liquidation resumes for all entries of subject merchandise entered on or after Sept. 25, the date that the final ITC affirmative injury determination was published.
