The US Department of Commerce (USDOC) determined that the US imports of stainless steel round wire from Vietnam are not circumventing the anti-dumping duty (AD) order on stainless steel wire rods from South Korea.

The conclusion kept the same as the preliminary determination made by the USDOC on December 2022.

The deadline for the final ruling on this circumvention inquiry was extended by the USDOC to May 24, 2023.
