SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On February 13, 2026, Commerce published the Preliminary Results of the 2023-2024 administrative review of the antidumping duty order on ripe olives from Spain in the Federal Register .^[1] Between March 25 and 27, 2026, we conducted a verification of Agro Sevilla's Herndon, Virginia office.^[2] Between April 13 and 17, 2026, we verified Agro Sevilla in Sevilla, Spain.^[3] On June 3, 2026, Commerce invited interested parties to comment on the Preliminary Results and Verification ( printed page 51660) Report.^[4] No parties submitted comments.

Although Commerce made certain changes to Agro Sevilla's U.S. and home market sales data pursuant to verification, the revisions did not result in a change to Agro Sevilla's dumping margin calculated in the Preliminary Results. Accordingly, we will issue a final analysis memorandum for Agro Sevilla but no decision memorandum accompanies this notice. On May 26, 2026, Commerce extended the final results of this review by 53 days, until August 5, 2026.^[5]

Commerce conducted this administrative review in accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

Scope of the Order ^[6]

The products covered by the Order are ripe olives from Spain. For a full description of the scope of the Order, see Preliminary Results.^[7]

Verification

As provided in section 782(i) of the Act, in March and April 2026, Commerce verified the sales data reported by Agro Sevilla. We used standard verification procedures, including an examination of relevant accounting and sales records, and original source documents provided by Agro Sevilla.^[8]

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

While no party submitted comments on our Preliminary Results, we made certain changes to Agro Sevilla's U.S. sales database based on our verification findings.^[9] For further discussion of these changes, see the Final Analysis Memorandum.^[10]

Rate for Non-Examined Companies

The statute and Commerce's regulations at the initiation of this review do not address the establishment of a rate to be assigned to respondents not selected for individual examination when Commerce limits its examination of companies subject to the administrative review pursuant to section 777A(c)(2)(B) of the Act. Generally, Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of the Act, which provides instructions for calculating the all-others rate in an investigation, for guidance when calculating the rate for respondents not individually examined in an administrative review. Under section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, the all-others rate is normally “an amount equal to the weighted average of the estimated weighted average dumping margins established for exporters and producers individually investigated, excluding any zero and de minimis margins, and any margins determined entirely {on the basis of facts available}.” For the final results, we have calculated a weighted-average dumping margin for Agro Sevilla that is not zero, de minimis, or determined entirely on the basis of facts available. Thus, because we received no comments on our Preliminary Results and consistent with our practice, for the final results of review, we continue to assign Agro Sevilla's rate of 3.54 percent to Angel Camacho Alimentacion, S.L. (Angel Camacho).^[11]

Partial Rescission of Administrative Review

We initiated an administrative review of Alimentary Group DCOOP, S.Coop.And. (Alimentary Group).^[12] However, because Alimentary Group did not have any entries during the POR ^[13] and no party commented on our preliminary intent to rescind the review on Alimentary Group,^[14] we are rescinding the review with respect to this company.

Final Results of Review

In the Preliminary Results, Commerce preliminarily determined that Agro Sevilla sold subject merchandise in the United States at prices below NV during the POR.^[15] Because we received no comments and certain changes to Agro Sevilla's home market and U.S. sales datasets did not change the margin from the Preliminary Results, we continue to find that Agro Sevilla and Angel Camacho Alimentacion, S.L. sold subject merchandise in the United States at prices below NV.

Disclosure

Commerce intends to disclose its calculations and analysis performed to interested parties for these final results within five days of any 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).

Assessment Rates

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b), Commerce has determined, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of this review. Because the weighted-average dumping margin for Agro Sevilla is not zero or de minimis ( i.e., less than 0.5 percent) in the final results of this review, we calculated an importer-specific assessment rate based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for each importer's examined sales and the total entered value of those same sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).^[16] Where an importer-specific assessment rate is de minimis ( i.e., less than 0.5 percent), the entries by that importer will be liquidated without regard to antidumping duties. 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.^[17]

For the non-selected company subject to this review, Angel Camacho, we will instruct CBP to liquidate all entries of subject merchandise that entered the United States during the POR at the rate calculated for Agro Sevilla as listed above.

Pursuant to a refinement to Commerce's assessment practice, where sales of subject merchandise that was produced or exported by Agro Sevilla ( printed page 51661) were not reported in the U.S. sales data, but the merchandise was entered for consumption into the United States during the POR, we will instruct CBP to liquidate any entries of such merchandise at the all-others rate ( i.e., 19.98 percent) ^[18] if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.^[19]

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).

With regard to Alimentary Group DCOOP, S.Coop.And. (Alimentary Group), for which we have rescinded this review, Commerce will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. Antidumping duties shall be assessed at rates equal to the cash deposit rate for estimated antidumping duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue rescission instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register .

Cash Deposit Requirements

Upon publication of this notice in the Federal Register , the following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all shipments of ripe olives from Spain entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication as provided by section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for companies subject to this review will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margins established in the final results of the review; (2) for merchandise exported by companies not covered in this review but covered in a prior segment of this proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published in the completed segment for the most recent period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the original less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation but the producer is, then the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in the completed segment for the most recent period for the producer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be 19.98 percent,^[20] the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation. These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

Notification to Importers

This notice serves as a final 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 the 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 countervailing duties.

Administrative Protective Order (APO)

This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to an APO of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely written notification of the return or destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO is a violation subject to sanction.

Notification to Interested Parties

Commerce is issuing and publishing the final results of this review in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
