SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On February 11, 2026, we published the Preliminary Results and invited interested parties to comment.^[1] On May 15, 2026, and August 3, 2026, Commerce extended the deadline of the final results of this administrative review, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2).^[2] Accordingly, the deadline for these final results is now August 10, 2026.

For details regarding the events that occurred since the Preliminary Results, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.^[3] The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS). ACCESS is available to registered users at access.trade.gov. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at access.trade.gov/​frnotices.

Scope of the Order ^[4]

The products covered by this Order are passenger tires from China. For a complete description of the scope of the Order, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.

Analysis of Comments Received

We addressed all the issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of the issues that parties raised is provided in the appendix to this notice.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

Based on comments received from interested parties regarding the Preliminary Results, we made certain changes to the margin calculations for Qingdao Transamerica Tire Industrial Co., Ltd. (Transamerica) and Shandong Haohua Tire Co., Ltd. (Haohua). For a discussion of these changes, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.

Separate Rates

We received no comments, and we have made no changes to the methodology in the Preliminary Results. We continue to find that: (1) Transamerica; (2) Haohua; and (3) Triangle Tyre Co., Ltd. (Triangle) demonstrated their eligibility for a separate rate in this review.^[5] For the final results, we continue to find that Transamerica; Haohua; and Triangle have demonstrated their eligibility for a separate rate in this review.

For these final results, we continue to find a dumping margin for the separate rate respondent, Triangle Tyre, as the weighted average of the calculated rate of the mandatory respondents, Transamerica and Haohua, which are not zero or de minimis, or determined entirely on the basis of facts available.

The China-Wide Entity

Commerce's policy regarding conditional review of the China-wide entity applies to this administrative review.^[6] Because no party requested a review of the China-wide entity, the entity is not under review. Therefore, the rate previously established for the China-wide entity ( i.e., 76.46 percent) remains the China-wide entity rate in this review.^[7]

We made no changes to the preliminary determination regarding Qingdao Fullrun Tyre Tech Corp., Ltd. (Fullrun Tech). For these final results, we continue to find that because Fullrun Tech did not establish its eligibility for a separate rate in this ( printed page 52669) review, it is part of the China-wide entity, and subject to the China-wide entity rate.

Final Results of Review

Commerce determines that the following weighted-average dumping margins exist for the period August 1, 2023, through July 31, 2024:

Disclosure

Commerce intends to disclose the calculations performed in connection with these final results to interested parties within five days of any public announcement or, if there is no public announcement, within five days after the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register , 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 will determine, 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.^[8] 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).

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), because Haohua and Transamerica reported the entered value for their U.S. sales, we calculated importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for the importer's examined sales to the total entered value of those sales. Where either a respondent's weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimis, within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1) of the Act, or an importer-specific rate is zero or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to liquidate appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.^[9]

Pursuant to Commerce's assessment practice,^[10] for entries that were not reported in the U.S. data submitted by Haohua and Transamerica, we will instruct to CBP to liquidate such entries at the China-wide rate.^[11] For Triangle, the separate rate respondent, the assessment rate will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin calculated using the rates assigned to Haohua and Transamerica. Finally, we will instruct CBP to liquidate entries containing subject merchandise exported by the companies under review that we determined are part of the China-wide entity ( i.e., Fullrun Tech) at the China-wide rate of 76.46 percent.

Cash Deposit Requirements

The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date for the final results of review, as provided for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) for the companies listed above that have a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in the final results of review; (2) for previously investigated or reviewed exporters not listed in the table above that have separate rates, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the existing exporter-specific rate published for the most recently-completed segment of this proceeding; (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 the rate for the China-wide entity ( i.e., 76.46 percent); ^[12] and (4) for all exporters of subject merchandise which are not located in China and have not received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to the Chinese exporter(s) that supplied that non-China exporter. 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 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.

Administrative Protective Order

This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to an administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which continues to govern business proprietary information in this segment of the proceeding. 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 which is subject to sanction.

Notification to Interested Parties

We are issuing these final results of administrative review and publishing this notice in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2) and 351.221(b)(5).
