Estimated AD Cash Deposit Requirements
The following estimated AD duty cash deposit requirements are effective for all shipments of subject merchandise from Italy with a time of entry on or after December 27, 2010:
- If the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, but was covered in a previous review or the original less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate established for the most recent period;
- If the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the LTFV investigation, but the manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recent period for the manufacturer of the subject merchandise; and
- If neither the exporter nor the manufacturer is a firm covered by this review, a prior review, or the LTFV investigation, the cash deposit rate will be 15.45 percent, the all-others rate established in the Section 129 determination.
Assessment Instructions
The ITA shall determine and U.S. Customs and Border Protection shall assess AD duties on all appropriate entries. The ITA has calculated an assessment rate for each importer of the subject merchandise for each respondent. The ITA will issue assessment instructions to CBP within 15 days after December 27, 2010.
The ITA adds that it clarified its "automatic assessment" regulation on May 6, 2003, which will apply to entries of subject merchandise during the period of produced by the respondent for which it did not know its merchandise was destined for the U.S. In such instances, we 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.
