New Cash Deposit Rates Take Effect Nov. 13

For entries on or after Nov. 13 (the publication date of these final results in the Federal Register), Commerce is setting new AD duty cash deposit rates. For any other exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all exporters of subject merchandise except those listed below), cash deposit rates will remain at the level set in the most recent review of each respective company. For companies that have never been assigned a cash deposit rate by Commerce, the all-others rate of 49.4% applies. The new rates are as follows:

Exporter/ProducerAD Rate
Novelis Deutschland GmbH16.42%
Speira GmbH (successor-in-interest to Hydro Aluminium Rolled Products GmbH)16.69%
Constellium Rolled Products Singen GmbH & Co. KG.16.51%

Assessment Rates for Entries Oct. 15, 2020 - March 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 Oct. 15, 2020, through March 31, 2022. Commerce will liquidate entries during that period from Novelis and HARP/Speira at importer-specific rates, and from the other company under review, Constellium, which was not individually examined, at the rate listed above.

(The review period is 10/15/20 - 03/31/22. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 2305090065 for a summary of the preliminary results of this administrative review.)
