Assessment Rates
As part of this administrative review, Commerce will also calculate the AD it will assess on importers for entries of subject merchandise entered between Sept. 1, 2021, and Aug. 31, 2022. If these preliminary results are unchanged, Commerce will direct CBP to assess AD duties on importers from Maquilacero and Prolamsa, the two companies selected for individual review, at importer-specific rates. The remaining companies would be assessed AD at the rates listed above.
(The period of review is 09/01/21 - 08/31/22. See the notice for additional information, including the scope of the order, potential cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc.)
