China Honey: Final Results of AD Admin Review

The Commerce Department issued the final results of the antidumping duty administrative review on honey from China (A-570-863) (here). Commerce assigned all three exporters under review to the China-wide entity with an AD duty rate of $2.63 per kilogram. New cash deposit rates for these companies take effect May 14.

Export Compliance Daily combines U.S. export control news, foreign border import regulation and policy developments into a single daily information service that reliably informs its trade professional readers about important current issues affecting their operations.

The three companies subject to this review and found to be part of the China-wide entity include: Kunshan Xinlong Food Co., Ltd., Fuzhou Shenglinmark Trade Co., Ltd., and Dongtai Peak Honey Industry Co., Ltd.

Companies that didn't get a rate in this review (i.e., all exporters of subject merchandise except the three under review) will continue to be subject to the cash deposit rate set in the most recent previous administrative review, and companies that have never been assigned an AD rate will continue to be subject to the China-wide rate.

Commerce is using the rates it calculated in these final results to calculate assessments of AD duties on importers of subject merchandise for entries between Dec. 1, 2012 and Nov. 30, 2013. For entries exported by the China-wide companies, including the three companies subject to this review, the agency is assessing AD duties at the $2.63/kg China-wide rate.

(The review period is 12/01/12 -- 11/30/13. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 1501060006 for summary of the preliminary results of this administrative review.)
