For exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all except Suzano and Sylvamo), 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 27.11% applies.

New Cash Deposit Rates Take Effect Oct. 12

For entries on or after Oct. 12, the date the agency is set to publish these final results in the Federal Register, Commerce is setting new AD duty cash deposit rates for subject merchandise produced or exported by Suzano, as follows:

Producer or ExporterAD Rate
Suzano S.A.7.17%
Sylvamo do Brasil Ltda./Sylvamo Exports Ltda.zero

Assessment Rates for Entries March 2021 - February 2022

Commerce is using the rates it calculated in these final results to calculate assessments of AD duties on importers of subject merchandise for entries March 1, 2021, through Feb. 28, 2022. Commerce will calculate importer-specific AD rates for entries during this period from Suzano, and entries from Sylvamo will be liquidated without regard to AD.

(The review period is 03/01/21 - 02/28/22. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 2304050045 for a summary of the preliminary results of this review.)
