Assessment Instructions for the Review Period (04/01/06 - 03/31/07)
The ITA will issue appropriate assessment instructions directly to U.S. Customs and Border Protection 15 days after September 10, 2008.
The ITA has calculated an importer-specific assessment rate for subject merchandise produced and exported by AVISMA. Because the ITA is relying on total adverse facts available (AFA) to establish the dumping margin for SMW, the ITA will instruct CBP to apply an assessment of 21.71% to all entries of subject merchandise during the review period that were produced and/or exported by SMW.
The ITA adds that for entries of subject merchandise during the review period produced by AVISMA for which AVISMA did not know its merchandise was destined for the U.S., the ITA will instruct CBP to liquidate 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.)
