Background. —In November 2024, the Commission determined that an industry in the United States was materially injured by reason of imports of aluminum lithographic printing plates from China and Japan that were sold in the United States at less than fair value and subsidized by the government of China.

Respondents Fujifilm North America Corporation, Fujifilm Corporation, and Fujifilm Printing Plate (China) Co. Ltd. contested the Commission's determinations before the U.S. Court of International Trade (“CIT”). The CIT remanded for the Commission to reconsider “whether {Fujifilm Manufacturing USA, Inc. (“Fujifilm Greenwood”)} is a related party,” discussing “the four factors in 19 U.S.C. 1677(4)(B)(ii),” and whether “appropriate circumstances exist to exclude Fujifilm Greenwood from the domestic industry,” addressing “how the instant facts are an `appropriate' case for excluding a related party in light of the example provided in the legislative history . . . .” Fujifilm N. Am. Corp. v. United States, Court No. 24-00251, Slip Op. 26-17 (Ct. Int'l Trade Feb. 18, 2026).

The comments must be based solely on the information in the Commission's record. The Commission will reject submissions containing additional factual information or arguments pertaining to issues other than the issue on which the Court has remanded this matter. The deadline for filing comments is April 10, 2026. Comments must be limited to no more than ten (10) double-spaced and single-sided pages of textual material, inclusive of attachments and exhibits.
