No shipments. Commerce continued to find, as in the preliminary results, that Dillinger and Industeel France had no shipments of subject merchandise during the review period. It will instruct CBP to liquidate any suspended entries that entered under their AD case number (i.e., at that exporter’s rate) at the all-others rate, which is 5.4%.
For exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all except the companies listed above), cash deposit rates remain at the level set in the most recent review of each respective company. If the exporter has never been assigned its own AD rate but the manufacturer has, the rate assigned to the manufacturer applies. For merchandise manufactured and exported by companies that have never been assigned a cash deposit rate by Commerce, the "all others" rate of 5.4% applies.
Assessment Rates for Entries May 2019 - April 2020
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 May 1, 2019, and April 30, 2020. Commerce will calculate importer-specific rates for entries from Industeel and NLMK. Entries from the remaining companies will be liquidated at the rates listed above.
(The review period is 05/01/19 - 04/30/20. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 2108050044 for a summary of the preliminary results of this administrative review.)
