For exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all except the 30 companies listed below), 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 15.67% applies.

For entries on or after Oct. 6, the date these final results were published in the Federal Register, Commerce is setting new AD duty cash deposit rates for the following companies:

No shipments. Commerce determined that K Line Logistics (Thailand) Ltd. had no exports to the U.S. during the period of review, so its rates will not change. Any entries under their case numbers will be liquidated at the “all-others” rate, i.e, 15.67%.
Assessment Rates for Entries March 2020 - February 2021
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 March 1, 2020, and Feb. 28, 2021. The agency will direct CBP to liquidate entries from from the 29 companies listed in the table above during that period without regard to antidumping duties, and entries from K Line Logistics will be liquidated at the rates listed above.
