Commerce has ordered liquidation “as entered” at the cash deposit rate in effect at the time of entry for subject merchandise from exporters for which a review was not requested or a review request was subsequently withdrawn (ADCVDWeb Message # 1316424).

Assessment Rates

If rates set in these preliminary results are confirmed in the final results, Commerce will assess AD duties on importers of subject merchandise from Hyosung during the period Aug. 1, 2020, through July 31, 2021, at importer-specific rates, and on importers from the other exporters under review at the rates listed above.
