The United States maintains its anti-dumping review of methionine from France, Japan and Spain.

The US Department of Commerce has published in the Federal Register the final results of the expedited first five-year reviews of the anti-dumping duty orders applying to methionine originating in France, Japan and Spain . The notice is entitled “Methionine From France, Japan, and Spain: Final Results of the Expedited First Sunset Reviews of the Antidumping Duty Orders” .

The Department concludes that revoking the orders would probably lead to the continuation or recurrence of dumping . This conclusion is set out in the final results of the expedited reviews covering the three origins cited in the notice .

The conclusion is linked to existing orders.

The notice concerns anti-dumping duty orders already in force, rather than the initiation of a new anti-dumping investigation . It describes the procedures under review as “first sunset reviews”, an expression reproduced in the official title of the publication . The document also presents them as expedited reviews .

The published conclusion concerns the hypothetical revocation of the measures and the likelihood of continued or recurring dumping in that event . The accessible text links this conclusion to the product described as “methionine” and to French, Japanese and Spanish origin .

The Federal Register publication identifies France, Japan and Spain separately in the title of the notice . The Department describes the measures concerned as “antidumping duty orders” . The notice available online presents the results as final .

The accessible content of the Federal Register page refers to the register's application programming interface documentation and displays a mechanism restricting automated access . The extracts available in the file do not reproduce the dumping margins stated in the notice, nor the detailed reasoning adopted by the Department for each of the three origins .

The scope of the measures and documentary limits are defined.

The notice referenced by the Federal Register concerns methionine originating in France, Japan and Spain, together with the anti-dumping duty orders associated with those three origins . Its title identifies the final results of the expedited first five-year reviews relating to that product .

The Federal Register documentary reference dates the publication 5 October 2026 . The notice link includes identifier 2026-20384 . The three countries are listed in the title of the notice available in the file: France, Japan and Spain .

The file does not provide the full text of the federal notice. The accessible page displays a Federal Register message stating that programmatic access to FederalRegister.gov and eCFR.gov is restricted because automated requests have been detected . The message refers users to the Federal Register application programming interface documentation and mentions CAPTCHA verification for access to the site .

The available documentary content therefore reproduces neither the full text of the final results nor any tables or annexes that may accompany them . It does not make it possible to identify the Harmonised System codes or TARIC codes corresponding to the methionine concerned . No tariff code is provided in the accessible extract .

The notice is described as setting out dumping margins for the three origins concerned . However, the corresponding numerical rates are not reproduced in the documentary content available in the file . Nor does the accessible extract detail how those margins are allocated among producers, exporters or residual categories .

The page consulted does not display a publication date in its body, but the notice address and title refer to the document dated 5 October 2026 . The automated-access restriction reported by the Federal Register is the only information available in the file concerning the absence of the full text .
