For the companies which were not selected for individual examination, the ITA will instruct CBP to apply the rates listed above to all entries of subject merchandise produced and/or exported by such firms.
The ITA adds that for entries of subject merchandise during the review period produced by companies selected for individual examination in the reviews for which the reviewed companies did not know their merchandise was destined for the U.S., the ITA will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the country-specific all-others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.
