Assessment Instructions for the Review Period (05/01/04 - 04/30/05)
The ITA states that it will issue appropriate assessment instructions for subject merchandise directly to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) within 15 days of October 4, 2006.
Where Huvis was the importer of record, the ITA states it has calculated importer-specific duty assessment rates; when Huvis was not the importer of record, the ITA states it has calculated importer-specific assessment rates on a per kilogram basis.
The ITA adds that where Huvis did not know the merchandise it produced and sold to an intermediary was destined for the U.S., the ITA will instruct CBP to liquidate such unreviewed entries at the "all-others" rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction. (See ITT's Online Archives or 06/02/03 news, 03060245 for BP summary of the ITA's May 2003 "automatic assessment" regulation.)
In addition, for Daehan Synthetic Company, Ltd. (which is rescinded from this review), in the event that any entries were made during the period of review through intermediaries under the CBP case number for Daehan, the ITA is instructing CBP to liquidate these entries and to assess antidumping duties at the "all-others" rate in effect at the time of entry (consistent with the May 2003 "automatic assessment" regulation). (See ITA notice for complete assessment instructions.)
(See ITA notice for more information, including the scope of the order, partial rescission, etc. See ITT's Online Archives or 06/12/06 news, 06061245, for BP summary of the preliminary results of this AD duty administrative review.)
