AGENCY:
Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY:
The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping duty (AD) order on aluminum extrusions from the People's Republic of China (China). The period of review (POR) is May 1, 2024, through April 30, 2025. Commerce preliminarily determines that none of the companies for which an administrative review was requested, and not withdrawn, demonstrated eligibility for a separate rate, and are, therefore, all part of the China-wide entity. For the 79 companies for which all requests for administrative review have been timely withdrawn, we are rescinding this administrative review.
Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results.
DATES:
Applicable April 14, 2026.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On May 26, 2011, Commerce published the AD order on aluminum extrusions from China in the
Federal Register
.[1]
On May 5, 2025, Commerce published a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review of the
( printed page 19110)
Order
pursuant to section 751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).[2]
On June 25, 2025, based on a timely request for review from the Aluminum Extrusions Fair Trade Committee (the petitioner), Commerce initiated an administrative review of the
Order
covering 97 companies.[3]
On November 14, 2025, due to the lapse in appropriations and Federal Government shutdown, Commerce tolled all deadlines in administrative proceedings by 47 days.[4]
Additionally, due to a backlog of documents that were electronically filed via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS) during the Federal Government shutdown, on November 24, 2025, Commerce tolled all deadlines in administrative proceedings by an additional 21 days.[5]
Accordingly, the deadline for the preliminary results of this administrative review is now April 9, 2026.
For a complete description of the events that followed the initiation of this review,
see
the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.[6]
A list of topics included in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is included as Appendix I to this notice. The Preliminary Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via ACCESS. ACCESS is available to registered users at
https://access.trade.gov.
In addition, a complete version of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at
https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.
Scope of the Order
The products covered by this
Order
are aluminum extrusions from China. For a complete description of the scope of this
Order, see
the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
Rescission of Administrative Review, in Part
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party or parties that requested a review withdraws the request within 90 days of the publication date of the notice of initiation of the requested review. As noted above, all requests for an administrative review were timely withdrawn for 79 of the 97 companies named in the
Initiation Notice.[7]
Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this administrative review with respect to these 79 companies.
See
Appendix II for a list of these companies.[8]
Separate Rates
Of the 18 companies for which an administrative review was requested and not withdrawn, none of these submitted evidence of their eligibility for separate rate status. Therefore, we preliminarily determine that the 18 companies listed in Appendix III are not eligible for a separate rate in this administrative review and are part of the China-wide entity.
China-Wide Entity
Under Commerce's policy regarding conditional review of the China-wide entity, the China-wide entity will not be under review unless a party specifically requests, or Commerce self-initiates, a review of the entity.[9]
Because no party requested a review of the China-wide entity in this review, and because Commerce did not self-initiate such a review, the entity is not under review, and the entity's current rate (
i.e.,
86.01 percent) [10]
is not subject to change.
Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations performed in connection with the preliminary results within five days of the public announcement, or if there is no public announcement, within five days of the date of publication of this notice in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). However, because Commerce did not calculate weighted-average dumping margins for any companies in this review, nor for the China-wide entity, there is nothing to disclose. This satisfies our regulatory obligation.
Public Comment
Case briefs or other written comments may be submitted to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c)(1)(ii), we have modified the deadline for interested parties to submit case briefs to Commerce to no later than 21 days after the date of the publication of this notice.[11]
Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues raised in the case briefs, may be filed not later than five days after the date for filing case briefs.[12]
Interested parties who submit case or rebuttal briefs in this administrative review must submit: (1) a table of contents listing each issue; and (2) a table of authorities.[13]
As provided under 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2)(iii) and (d)(2)(iii), we request that interested parties provide at the beginning of their briefs a public, executive summary for each issue raised in their briefs.[14]
Further, we request that interested parties limit their public executive summary of each issue to no more than 450 words, not including citations. We intend to use the public executive summaries as the basis of the comment summaries included in the issues and decision memorandum that will accompany the final results of this administrative review. We request that interested parties include footnotes for relevant citations in the public executive summary of each issue. Note that Commerce has amended certain of its requirements pertaining to the service of documents in 19 CFR 351.303(f).[15]
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), interested parties who wish to request a hearing, limited to issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs, must submit a written request to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, U.S. Department of Commerce, via ACCESS by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time within 30 days after the
( printed page 19111)
date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register
. Hearing requests should contain: (1) the party's name, address, and telephone number; (2) the number of participants and whether any participant is a foreign national; and (3) a list of issues to be discussed. Oral presentations at the hearing will be limited to issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs. If a request for a hearing is made, parties will be notified of the date, time, and location of the hearing.[16]
Parties should confirm the date, time, and location of the hearing two days before the scheduled hearing date.
Assessment Rates
In accordance with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, upon issuance of the final results, Commerce shall determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise covered by this review.[17]
For the companies for which this review is rescinded with these preliminary results, we will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries at rates equal to the cash deposit of antidumping duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, during the POR in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue these rescission instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register
.
The final results of this administrative review shall be the basis for the assessment of antidumping duties on entries of merchandise covered by the final results of this review and for future deposits of estimated duties, where applicable.[18]
For the individually calculated respondent and non-selected separate rate respondents under review, Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of the final results of this review in the
Federal Register
. If a timely summons is filed at the U.S. Court of International Trade, the assessment instructions will direct CBP not to liquidate relevant entries until the time for parties to file a request for a statutory injunction has expired (
i.e.,
within 90 days of publication).
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon publication of the final results of this administrative review for shipments of the subject merchandise from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results of review, as provided in section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) for the individually calculated respondent and the non-selected separate rate respondents, the cash deposit rate will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin established in the final results of this administrative review (except, if the
ad valorem
rate is
de minimis,
then the cash deposit will be zero); (2) for any previously investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese exporters of subject merchandise not listed above that received a separate rate in a prior segment of this proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the existing exporter-specific rate; (3) for all Chinese exporters of subject merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be that for the China-wide entity,
i.e.,
86.01 percent; and (4) for all non-Chinese exporters of subject merchandise which have not received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to the Chinese exporter that supplied that non-Chinese exporter. These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.
Final Results of Review
Unless the deadline is extended, Commerce intends to issue the final results of this administrative review, including the results of its analysis of issues raised by interested parties in the case and rebuttal briefs, within 120 days of these preliminary results in the
Federal Register
, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1).
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a preliminary reminder to importers of their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate regarding the reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this POR. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties, and/or an increase in the amount of antidumping duties by the amount of the countervailing duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing notice of these preliminary results in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4), and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).
Dated: April 9, 2026.
Christopher Abbott,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations, performing the non-exclusive functions and duties of the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
