The U.S. Department of Commerce has amended its final antidumping duty results for frozen warmwater shrimp from Thailand covering the February 2023–January 2024 review period. This is a routine administrative review amendment that may affect duty rates and cash-deposit obligations for importers of Thai shrimp.

The U.S. Department of Commerce announced on June 8, 2026, an amended final determination in its antidumping duty administrative review of certain frozen warmwater shrimp from Thailand. The period of review (POR) covers February 1, 2023, through January 31, 2024.
Who Is Affected
Importers of frozen warmwater shrimp from Thailand are directly affected by this amendment. Thai shrimp exporters and their U.S. customers must monitor the revised duty rates and cash-deposit requirements that typically flow from these Commerce determinations. The antidumping order on Thai shrimp remains in force, and this review cycle establishes the applicable margin rates for the 2023–24 period.
What Changed
Although the Federal Register notice does not detail the specific margin adjustments in the excerpt provided, amended final results in antidumping reviews typically involve:
- Recalculation of dumping margins for reviewed exporters
- Potential revision of individual company duty rates
- Updated cash-deposit rates for future entries
- Possible reclassification of shipment status (e.g., "no shipments" determinations for certain companies)
Importers and freight forwarders handling Thai shrimp shipments should obtain the full amended determination from Commerce to confirm the precise duty rates applicable to their suppliers and transactions.
What this means for shippers
Review the amended antidumping margins for your Thai shrimp suppliers immediately and adjust landed-cost calculations, pricing, and cash-deposit estimates. Verify whether your suppliers are named in the final determination or fall under the "all others" rate. Update supplier documentation and payment schedules to reflect any new duty obligations effective from the POR start date. Failure to reconcile duty rates can lead to underpayment penalties or unexpected cost swings on future entries.
