Steel Wire Mesh from Mexico: Antidumping Duty Circumvention Determination
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce has determined that imports of certain low-carbon steel wire from Mexico, when assembled into welded wire mesh in the United States, circumvent existing antidumping and countervailing duty orders. This final determination applies to merchandise produced by Deacero S.A.P.I. de C.V. and becomes effective March 25, 2026.
What changed
The U.S. Department of Commerce has issued a final determination that imports of certain low-carbon steel (LCS) wire produced in Mexico and subsequently assembled or completed into standard steel welded wire mesh in the United States circumvent the existing antidumping and countervailing duty (AD/CVD) orders on welded wire mesh from Mexico. This determination specifically covers LCS wire produced by Deacero S.A.P.I. de C.V. and applies to merchandise classifiable under HTSUS subheading 7217.10.50.90. The agency's preliminary determination findings were upheld, with no changes made based on party comments.
This final determination means that imports of the specified LCS wire, when used to produce welded wire mesh in the U.S., will be subject to the AD/CVD orders. Importers and exporters dealing with this merchandise must now comply with the existing duty orders. The determination is applicable starting March 25, 2026. Compliance officers should review their import and supply chain processes for steel wire mesh originating from Mexico to ensure adherence to the AD/CVD requirements.
What to do next
- Review import processes for steel wire mesh from Mexico.
- Ensure compliance with existing AD/CVD orders for affected LCS wire.
- Update supply chain documentation to reflect circumvention determination.
Penalties
Subject to antidumping and countervailing duties.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 16, 2025, and September 25, 2025, respectively, Commerce published in the
Federal Register
its Preliminary Determination (1) that imports of LCS wire produced in Mexico and completed into welded wire mesh in the United States are circumventing the Orders. (2) Commerce conducted this circumvention inquiry pursuant to section 781(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act),
and 19 CFR 351.226(h).
Due to the lapse in appropriations and Federal Government shutdown, on November 14, 2025, Commerce tolled all deadlines in
administrative proceedings by 47 days. (3) Additionally, due to a backlog of documents that were electronically filed via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS) during the Federal Government shutdown, on November 24,
2025, Commerce tolled all deadlines in administrative proceedings by an additional 21 days. (4) On January 16, 2026, Commerce further extended the deadline for this circumvention inquiry to March 20, 2026. (5)
For a summary of events that occurred since the Preliminary Determination, as well as a full discussion of the issues raised by parties for consideration in the final determination, see the Issues
and Decision Memorandum. (6) The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via ACCESS. ACCESS is available to registered
users at https://access.trade.gov. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memoranda can be accessed directly at https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.
Scope of the Orders
The merchandise covered by these Orders is welded wire mesh. For a full description of the scope of the Orders, see Appendix I.
Merchandise Subject to the Circumvention Inquiry
This circumvention inquiry covers certain LCS wire produced in Mexico and further processed and completed in the United States
into welded wire mesh from Mexico. The inquiry merchandise is currently classifiable under HTSUS subheading 7217.10.50.90.
Although the HTSUS subheading is provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the merchandise
is dispositive.
Methodology
Commerce conducted this circumvention inquiry in accordance with section 781(a) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.226. (7) We continued to apply this methodology, without exception, and incorporate by reference this description of the methodology,
for our final determination.
Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs by parties in these inquiries are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum.
A list of the issues raised is attached to this notice at Appendix II. Based on our analysis of the comments received from
interested parties, we made no changes to our Preliminary Determination.
Changes Since the Preliminary Determination
We have made no changes to our conclusions from the Preliminary Determination.
Final Circumvention Determination
We determine that Mexican-origin LCS wire produced by Deacero S.A.P.I. de C.V. (Deacero) and assembled or completed into welded
wire mesh in the United States is circumventing the Orders. We also determine that Mexican-origin LCS wire produced by Impulsora del Alambre S.A. de C.V. (Impulsora) is not circumventing
the Orders. For a detailed explanation of our determination, see the Preliminary Determination PDM and the Issues and Decision Memorandum.
We also determine that U.S. imports of inquiry merchandise exported from Mexico are circumventing the Orders on a country-wide basis. As a result, in accordance with section 781(a) of the Act, we determine that this merchandise is
covered by the Orders.
See the “Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposit Requirements” section, below, for details regarding suspension of liquidation
and cash deposit requirements. See the “Certifications” section, below, for details regarding the use of certifications.
Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposit Requirements
Based on the affirmative country-wide determination of circumvention, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.226(l)(3), we will direct
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to suspend liquidation and require a cash deposit of estimated duties on unliquidated
entries of LCS wire that are produced in Mexico and assembled or completed into welded wire mesh in the United States, that
were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption by Deacero USA or its affiliates on or after April 2, 2024, the
date of publication of the preliminary affirmative circumvention determination in the circumvention inquiry of pre-stressed
concrete steel wire strand from Mexico, (8) pursuant to 19 CFR 351.226(l)(3)(iii)(A). For all other companies, we will direct CBP to suspend liquidation and require a
cash deposit of estimated duties on unliquidated entries of LCS wire that are produced in Mexico and assembled or completed
into welded wire mesh in the United States, that were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the
date of publication of the Preliminary Determination in the
Federal Register
. (9)
Entries for which the importer has met the certification and documentation requirements described below and in Appendix III
of this notice will not be subject to suspension of liquidation, or the cash deposit requirements described above. In accordance
with 19 CFR 351.228(b), where the certification and documentation requirements are not met for an entry, Commerce intends
to instruct CBP to suspend the entry and collect cash deposits at the rates applicable to the AD and CVD orders on welded
wire mesh from Mexico, and may instruct CBP to assess antidumping or countervailing duties at the applicable rate. For producers
and/or exporters of the LCS wire that have a company-specific cash deposit rate under the Orders, the cash deposit rate will be the company-specific rate. Otherwise, Commerce will instruct CBP to require cash deposits equal
to the AD all-others rate (i.e., 22.01 percent) 7 and the CVD all-others rate (i.e., 1.03 percent). 8 These suspension of liquidation requirements will remain in effect until further notice.
Certifications
In order to administer these circumvention determinations, Commerce has established importer certifications. These certifications
will permit importers to establish that specific entries of LCS wire from Mexico are not subject to suspension of liquidation
or the collection of cash deposits pursuant to this final country-wide affirmative determination of circumvention because
the merchandise will not be further processed into welded wire mesh covered by the Orders (see Appendix III to this notice).
Importers that claim that an entry of LCS wire is not subject to suspension of liquidation or the collection of cash deposits
based on the end-use of such merchandise must complete the applicable certification and meet the certification requirements
described below, as well as the requirements identified in the certification.
Certification Requirements Established in the Preliminary Federal Register Notice
Importers are required to complete and maintain the applicable importer certification and retain all supporting documentation
for the certification. With the exception of the entries described below, the importer certification must be completed, signed,
and dated by the time the entry summary is filed for the relevant entry. Shipments entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption by Deacero USA on or after April 2, 2024 (i.e., the date of publication of the preliminary affirmative determination of circumvention by Deacero for pre-stressed concrete
steel wire strand from Mexico) must comply with the importer certification requirements described below. For all other shipments,
the importer certification requirements are effective for all shipments entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption
on or after September 16, 2025 (the publication of the Preliminary Determination in the
Federal Register
). While Commerce will normally begin suspension of liquidation on or after the date of the publication of the notice of initiation
of the circumvention inquiry pursuant to 19 CFR 351.226(l)(2)(ii), in this instance, given that Commerce's affirmative determination
rests on the behavior of one party (Deacero) and that
the action of the other party subject to individual examination under this inquiry (Impulsora) demonstrates no attempt at
circumvention, Commerce is beginning the suspension of liquidation and the certification requirement for all other parties
at a later date (*i.e.,* the publication of the preliminary determination notice in the
Federal Register
). In this regard, Commerce notes that Deacero and Impulsora together account for that vast majority of shipments of LCS wire
to the United States from Mexico during the inquiry period. [(10)]()
With the exception of entries described below, the importer, or the importer's agent, must submit the importer's certification,
the steel mill certificate for the imported product, and the commercial invoice for the imported product to CBP at the time
of entry summary by uploading these documents into the document imaging system (DIS) in the Automated Commercial Environment
(ACE). Consistent with CBP's procedures, importers shall identify certified entries by using importers' additional declaration
(record 54) AD/CVD Certification Designation (type code 06) when filing an entry summary. (11) Where the importer uses a broker to facilitate the entry process, it should obtain the entry summary number from the broker.
Agents of the importer, such as brokers, however, are not permitted to certify on behalf of the importer.
Additionally, the claims made in the certifications and any supporting documentation are subject to verification by Commerce
and/or CBP. Importers are required to maintain the certifications and supporting documentation until the later of: (1) the
date that is five years after the latest entry date of the entries covered by the certification; or (2) the date that is three
years after the conclusion of any litigation in United States courts regarding such entries.
For all shipments of LCS wire from Mexico that were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption by Deacero during
the period April 2, 2024 (i.e., the date of publication of the preliminary affirmative determination of circumvention by Deacero for pre-stressed concrete
steel wire strand from Mexico), through September 26, 2025, where the entry has not been liquidated (and entries for which
liquidation has not become final), and for consumption by all other companies during the period beginning on September 16,
2025 (the publication of the preliminary determination in the
Federal Register
), through September 26, 2025, where the entry has not been liquidated (and entries for which liquidation has not become final),
the relevant certification should have been completed and signed by October 27, 2025. For such entries, importers have the
option to complete a blanket certification covering multiple entries, individual certifications for each entry, or a combination
thereof. The importer certification, commercial invoice, and steel mill certificate should have been uploaded to the DIS in
ACE by October 27, 2025. For such entries, importers have the option to complete a blanket certification covering multiple
entries, individual certifications for each entry, or a combination thereof.
For unliquidated entries (and entries for which liquidation has not become final) of LCS wire that were declared as non-AD/CVD
type entries (e.g., type 01) and entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption in the United States during the period beginning September
16, 2025 (the publication of the preliminary determination in the
Federal Register
), through September 26, 2025, for which none of the above certifications may be made, importers must have filed a Post Summary
Correction with CBP, in accordance with CBP's regulations, regarding conversion of such entries from non-AD/CVD type entries
to AD/CVD type entries (e.g., type 01 to type 03) by September 26, 2025. The importer should pay cash deposits on those entries consistent with the regulations
governing post summary corrections that require payment of additional duties.
If it is determined that an importer has not met the certification and/or related documentation requirements for certain entries,
Commerce intends to instruct CBP to suspend, pursuant to this final country-wide affirmative determination of circumvention
and the Orders, (12) all unliquidated entries for which these requirements were not met and to require the importer to post applicable AD/CVD cash
deposits equal to the rates noted above.
Administrative Protective Order
This notice will serve as the only reminder to all parties subject to an administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the destruction of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). 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 the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation.
Notification to Interested Parties
These determinations are issued and published in accordance with section 781(a) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.226(g)(2).
Dated: March 20, 2026. Christopher Abbott, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations, performing the non-exclusive functions and duties of the Assistant
Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
Appendix I
Scope of the Orders
The merchandise covered by the Orders is uncoated standard welded steel reinforcement wire mesh (wire mesh) produced from smooth or deformed wire.
Subject wire mesh is produced in square and rectangular grids of uniformly spaced steel wires that are welded at all intersections.
Sizes are specified by combining the spacing of the wires in inches or millimeters and the wire cross-sectional area in hundredths
of square inch or millimeters squared. Subject wire mesh may be packaged and sold in rolls or in sheets. Subject wire mesh
is currently produced to ASTM specification A1064/A1064M, which covers carbon-steel wire and welded wire reinforcement, smooth
and deformed, for concrete in the following seven styles:
6X6 W1.4/W1.4 or D1.4/D1.4
6X6 W2.1/W2.1 or D2.1/D2.1
6X6 W2.9/W2.9 or D2.9/D2.9
6X6 W4/W4 or D4/D4
6X12 W4/W4 or D4/D4
4X4 W2.9/W2.9 or D2.9/D2.9
4X4 W4/W4 or D4/D4
The first number in the style denotes the nominal spacing between the longitudinal wires and the second number denotes the
nominal spacing between the transverse wires. In the first style listed above, for example, “6X6” denotes a grid size of six
inches by six inches. “W” denotes the use of smooth wire, and “D” denotes the use of deformed wire in making the mesh. The
number following the W or D denotes the nominal cross-sectional area of the transverse and longitudinal wires in hundredths
of a square inch (i.e., W1.4 or D1.4 is .014 square inches).
Smooth wire is wire that has a uniform cross-sectional diameter throughout the length of the wire.
Deformed wire is wire with indentations or raised transverse ribs, which results in wire that does not have a uniform cross-sectional
diameter throughout the length of the wire. Rolls of subject wire mesh are produced in the following styles and nominal width
and length combinations:
Style: 6X6 W1.4/W1.4 or D1.4/D1.4 (i.e., 10 gauge).
Roll Sizes:
5′ X 50′
5′ X 150′
6′ X 150′
5′ X 200′
7′ X 200′
7.5′ X 200′
Style: 6X6 W2.1/W2.1 or D2.1/D2.1 (i.e., 8 gauge).
Roll Sizes: 5′ X 150′.
Style: 6X6 W2.9/W2.9 or D2.9/D2.9 (i.e., 6 gauge).
Roll Sizes:
5′ X 150′
7′ X 200′
All rolled wire mesh is included in scope regardless of length. Sheets of subject wire mesh are produced in the following
styles and nominal width and length combinations:
Style: 6X6 W1.4/W1.4 or D1.4/D1.4 (i.e., 10 gauge).
Sheet Size:
3′6″ X 7′
4′ X 7′
4′ X 7′6″
5′ X 10′
7′ X 20′
7′6″ X 20′
8′ X 12′6″
8′ X 15′
8′ X 20′
Style: 6X6 W2.1/W2.1 or D2.1/D2.1 (i.e., 8 gauge).
Sheet Size:
5′ X 10′
7′ X 20′
7′6″ X 20′
8′ X 12′6″
8′ X 15′
8′ X 20′
Style: 6X6 W2.9/W2.9 or D2.9/D2.9 (i.e., 6 gauge)
Sheet Size:
3′6″ X 20′
5′ X 10′

7′6″ X 20′
8′ X 12′6″
8′ X 12′8″
8′ X 15′
8′ X 20′
Style: 4X4 W4/W4 or D4/D4 (i.e., 4 gauge).
Sheet Size:
5′ X 10′
8′ X 12′6″
8′ X 12′8″
8′ X 15′
8′ X 20′
Any product imported, sold, or invoiced in one of these size combinations is within the scope.
ASTM specification A1064/A1064M provides for permissible variations in wire gauges, the spacing between transverse and longitudinal
wires, and the length and width combinations. To the extent a roll or sheet of welded wire mesh falls within these permissible
variations, it is within this scope.
ASTM specification A1064/A1064M also defines permissible oversteeling, which is the use of a heavier gauge wire with a larger
cross-sectional area than nominally specified. It also permits a wire diameter tolerance of ± 0.003 inches for products up
to W5/D5 and ± 0.004 for sizes over W5/D5. A producer may oversteel by increasing smooth or deformed wire diameter up to two
whole number size increments on Table 1 of A1064. Subject wire mesh has the following actual wire diameter ranges, which account
for both oversteeling and diameter tolerance:
| W/D No. | Maximum
oversteelingNo. | Diameter range
(inch) |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 1.4 (i.e., 10 gauge) | 3.4 | 0.093 to 0.211. |
| 2.1 (i.e., 8 gauge) | 4.1 | 0.161 to 0.231. |
| 2.9 (i.e., 6 gauge) | 4.9 | 0.189 to 0.253. |
| 4.0 (i.e., 4 gauge) | 6.0 | 0.223 to 0.280. |
To the extent a roll or sheet of welded wire mesh falls within the permissible variations provided above, it is within this
scope.
In addition to the tolerances permitted in ASTM specification A1064/A1064M, wire mesh within this scope includes combinations
where:
A width and/or length combination varies by ± one grid size in any direction, i.e., ± 6 inches in length or width where the wire mesh's grid size is “6X6”; and/or
The center-to-center spacing between individual wires may vary by up to one quarter of an inch from the nominal grid size
specified.
Length is measured from the ends of any wire and width is measured between the center-line of end longitudinal wires.
Additionally, although the subject wire mesh typically meets ASTM A1064/A1064M, the failure to include certifications, test
reports or other documentation establishing that the product meets this specification does not remove the product from the
scope. Wire mesh made to comparable foreign specifications (e.g., DIN, JIS, etc.) or proprietary specifications is included in the scope.
Excluded from the scope is wire mesh that is galvanized (i.e., coated with zinc) or coated with an epoxy coating. In order to be excluded as galvanized, the excluded welded wire mesh must
have a zinc coating thickness meeting the requirements of ASTM specification A641/A641M. Epoxy coating is a mix of epoxy resin
and hardener that can be applied to the surface of steel wire.
Merchandise subject to the Orders are classified under Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) categories 7314.20.0000 and 7314.39.0000. While
HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope of the Orders is dispositive.
