Japan and UK Ball Bearings: Final Results of AD Admin Review
The Commerce Department issued the final results of the antidumping duty administrative review on ball bearings and parts thereof from Japan (A-588-804) and the United Kingdom (A-412-801) (here). These final results will be used to set final assessments of AD duties on importers for entries between May 2010 and April 2011. These AD duty orders have been revoked, so entries of ball bearings from Japan and the UK are no longer subject to cash deposit requirements.

Order Revoked, No Cash Deposits Post-2011
Duties on ball bearings from Japan and the UK were ended in 2011 pursuant to a court order (see 11071517). In 2013, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit reinstated the duties (see 14032524), but Commerce again revoked its AD duties on ball bearings from Japan and the UK in March 2014, effective for all entries on or after Sept. 15, 2011 (see 14032524). As such, ball bearings from Japan and the UK are no longer subject to AD duty cash deposit requirements. The rates Commerce is setting in this review are for assessment purposes only.
