China Innerspring Units: Prelim Results of AD Admin Review
The Commerce Department issued the preliminary results of its antidumping duty administrative review on uncovered innerspring units from China (A-570-836) (here). The agency assigned East Grace Corporation to the China-wide entity, with an AD rate of 234.51%. Any changes to cash deposit rates for East Grace would take effect on the publication date of the final results of this review, currently due in July. In its final results, Commerce will set assessments of AD duties for subject merchandise exported by East Grace and its affiliates with a time of entry between Feb. 1, 2014 and Jan. 31, 2015.

Commerce also preliminarily determined that Macao Commercial and Industrial Spring Mattress Manufacturer did not have any shipments to the U.S. during the period of review. If this finding is continued in the final results, Macao Commercial and Industrial's AD duty cash deposit rate will not change as a result of this review, and any entries under its case number during the period of review will be liquidated at the China-wide rate.
Commerce has ordered liquidation at "as entered" rates for subject merchandise entered Feb. 1, 2014 through Jan. 31, 2015 that was exported by companies that are not under review (i.e., all except East Grace and Macao Commercial and Industrial) (here).
(The period of review is 02/01/14 -- 01/31/15. See notice for additional information, including the scope of the order, potential cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc.)
