The U.S. Court of International Trade sustained Commerce's final scope determination covering wooden cabinets and vanities and components thereof from China, holding that cabinets produced in China and combined in Vietnam with Vietnamese-made wooden parts remain Chinese in origin and within the antidumping and countervailing duty orders. Cabinets containing a Chinese-made wooden toe kick with all other wooden parts produced in Vietnam are third-country in origin and outside the orders. Judge Leo M. Gordon issued the opinion in Court No. 24-00156, Slip Op. 26-40, dated April 21, 2026, denying the plaintiffs' motion for judgment on the agency record.
The Canadian International Trade Tribunal completed an interim review (RD-2025-001) of its March 25, 2021 order in expiry review RR-2020-001 on photovoltaic modules and laminates originating in or exported from China, and amended the order to exclude flexible photovoltaic modules affixed to curved vehicle surfaces, such as transport truck fairings, with a power output not exceeding 200 W. The Tribunal continues the order as amended.
Canada's International Trade Tribunal continued, with amendment, its September 2, 2020 order in expiry review RR-2019-002 following expiry review RR-2025-001, covering the dumping of carbon steel screws originating in or exported from China and Chinese Taipei and the subsidizing of such products originating in or exported from China. The Tribunal found that expiry of the order was likely to result in injury. The Canada Border Services Agency will therefore continue to impose anti-dumping and countervailing duties on these goods.
The Canadian International Trade Tribunal determined on March 11, 2026, in preliminary injury inquiry PI-2025-008, that there is a reasonable indication the dumping and subsidizing of forged grinding media from China have caused injury to the domestic industry.

CBSA will continue its investigations and issue preliminary determinations by April 10, 2026.
