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 4.8% applies.
Assessment Rates for Entries November 2020 - October 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 Nov. 1, 2020, and Oct. 31, 2021. Commerce will not assess AD duties on entries during that period from HiSteel. For entries from Husteel, Commerce will calculate importer-specific rates, and the agency will assess AD duties on entries from the other companies under review at the rates listed above.
(The review period is 11/01/20 - 10/31/21. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 2209130051 for a summary of the preliminary results of this administrative review.)
