CBSA states that on October 27, 2026, under paragraph 41(1)(b) of SIMA, it made a final determination of dumping and a final determination of subsidizing for unarmoured building cables originating in or exported from China, and under paragraph 41(1)(a) terminated the subsidy investigation for goods exported by Tianjin Feiya Fengda Wire & Cable Technology Co., Ltd. because the subsidy amount was insignificant (less than 1%). The subject goods are usually imported under tariff classification numbers 8544.49.00.19 and 8544.49.00.90, and may also be imported under 7408.11.10.00, 7408.19.00.10, 7605.29.00.00 and 7614.90.00.00, in particular as conductors to be further processed into UBC.

The U.S. Court of International Trade denied GameChange Solar Corp.'s motion for judgment on the agency record in Court No. 24-00174, upholding Commerce's final scope ruling that the company's off-grid solar charging module is within the scope of the 2012 antidumping and countervailing duty orders on crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells from China. In Slip Op. 26-125, Judge Timothy C. Stanceu found the plain scope language dispositive and rejected GameChange's arguments that Commerce failed to identify specific scope language and that the consumer good and off-grid CSPV panel exclusions applied.
Why it matters: The ruling leaves in place the AD/CVD scope treatment of GameChange's off-grid solar charging modules from China, which the company had argued fell under the orders' consumer good and off-grid CSPV panel exclusions.
The USITC determined on October 13, 2026 that revocation of the antidumping and countervailing duty orders on mattresses from Cambodia, China, Malaysia, Serbia, Thailand, Turkey and Vietnam would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury within a reasonably foreseeable time. The existing antidumping duty orders on Cambodia, Malaysia, Serbia, Thailand, Turkey and Vietnam and the existing countervailing duty order on China remain in place. The reviews, Inv. Nos. 701-TA-645 and 731-TA-1495 and 1497-1501 (Review), were instituted on April 1, 2026 and conducted on an expedited basis; the USITC's report, Publication 5803, will be available on its website by November 19, 2026.
Why it matters: Importers of mattresses from Cambodia, China, Malaysia, Serbia, Thailand, Turkey and Vietnam remain subject to the existing antidumping and countervailing duty orders.
The U.S. Court of International Trade remanded Commerce's antidumping and countervailing redeterminations in the investigations of freight rail couplers from China, Court No. 23-00160 and Court No. 23-00161, in Slip Op. 26-122 dated October 8, 2026. The court found Commerce again failed to adequately explain its decision not to exclude attached freight rail couplers from the scope and did not reasonably address Wabtec's argument that attached couplers cannot cause cognizable injury. Commerce had continued to find on remand that attached couplers were properly included in the scope of the orders.
Why it matters: Importers of freight rail couplers from China covered by these orders remain subject to the existing scope while Commerce reconsiders or further explains its decision not to exclude attached couplers.

Reg. 24,844 and 86 Fed. Reg. 36,093).
Why it matters: Importers of chassis from Vietnam containing Chinese-origin landing gear and running gear subassemblies remain affected by the scope dispute, which the CIT has returned to Commerce for further redetermination.
