Scope of the measure
The product covered by this investigation is rebar from Algeria. For a complete description of the scope of this order, see the appendix to this notice. Countervailing Duty Order Based on the ITC's confirmation that a material injury determination is not required for this countervailing duty investigation, consistent with section 701(c) of the Act, and the ITC's subsequent closure of its investigation, in accordance with section 705(c)(2) of the Act, Commerce is issuing this CVD order. Moreover, because a material injury determination is not required in this countervailing duty investigation, unliquidated entries of such merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption, are subject to the assessment of countervailing duties. Id. Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposits In accordance with section 706 of the Act, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to reinstitute the suspension of liquidation of effective on the date of publication of the ITC's notification of the closure of investigation in the Federal Register, and to assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, pursuant to section 706(a)(1) of the Act, countervailing duties on each entry of subject merchandise in an amount based on the net countervailable subsidy rates below. These instructions suspending liquidation will remain in effect until further notice. Commerce also intends, pursuant to section 706(a)(1) of the Act, to instruct CBP to require cash deposits equal to the amounts as indicated below. Accordingly, effective on the date of publication of the ITC's notification of the closure of investigation in the Federal Register, CBP will require, at the same time as importers would normally deposit estimated customs duties on the subject merchandise, a cash deposit for each entry of subject merchandise equal to the subsidy rates listed in the Final Determination. The all-others rate applies to all producers or exporters not specifically listed, as appropriate. See Final Determination, 91 FR at 14808-09; section 706(a)(3) of the Act. Estimated Countervailable Subsidy Rates The estimated countervailable subsidy rates are as follows: Subsidy Rate Company (percent ad valorem) Tosyali Iron Steel Industry Algeria SPA * 72.94 All Others * 72.94 * This rate is based on facts available with adverse inferences. Provisional Measures Section 703(d) of the Act states that the suspension of liquidation pursuant to an affirmative preliminary determination may not remain in effect for more than four months. Commerce published the Preliminary Determination on January 13, 2026. As such, the four-month period beginning on the date of the publication of the Preliminary Determinations ended on May 12, 2026. See Steel Concrete Reinforcing Bar from Algeria: Preliminary Affirmative Countervailing Duty Determination, 91 FR 1261 (January 13, 2026) (Preliminary Determination). Therefore, in accordance with section 703(d) of the Act, we instructed CBP to terminate the suspension of liquidation and to liquidate, without regard to countervailing duties, unliquidated entries of rebar from Algeria entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption, on or after May 13, 2026, the date on which the provisional measures expired, until and through the day preceding the date of publication of the ITC's notification of the closure of investigation in the Federal Register. Suspension of liquidation and the collection of cash deposits will resume on the date of publication of the ITC's notification of the closure of investigation in the Federal Register. Establishment of the Annual Inquiry Service Lists On September 20, 2021, Commerce published the Final Rule in the Federal Register. On September 27, 2021, Commerce also published the Procedural Guidance in the Federal Register. The Final Rule and Procedural Guidance provide that Commerce will maintain an annual inquiry service list for each order or suspended investigation, and any interested party submitting a scope ruling application or request for circumvention inquiry shall serve a copy of the application or request on the persons on the annual inquiry service list for that order, as well as any companion order covering the same merchandise from the same country of origin. See Regulations to Improve Administration and Enforcement of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Laws, 86 FR 52300 (September 20, 2021) (Final Rule). See Scope Ruling Application; Annual Inquiry Service List; and Informational Sessions, 86 FR 53205 (September 27, 2021) (Procedural Guidance). In accordance with the Procedural Guidance, for orders published in the Federal Register after November 4, 2021, Commerce will create an annual inquiry service list segment in Commerce's online e-filing and document management system, Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Electronic Service System (ACCESS), available at https://access.trade.gov , within five business days of publication of the notice of the order.
