For any other exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all exporters of subject merchandise except Puremann), cash deposit rates will remain at the level set in the most recent review of each respective company. For companies that have never been assigned a cash deposit rate by Commerce, the China-wide rate applies.
(The review period is 04/01/20 - 03/31/21. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 2201030025 for a summary of the preliminary results of this administrative review.)
