Commerce to Require AD Duties on Paper Shopping Bags
The Commerce Department will soon suspend liquidation and impose antidumping duty cash deposit requirements on imports of paper shopping bags from Cambodia, Colombia, Malaysia, Portugal, Taiwan, Turkey and Vietnam, and will also require AD cash deposits on paper shopping bags from China and India, it said in a fact sheet issued Dec. 28 announcing its preliminary determinations in the AD investigations. Commerce set AD rates ranging from 10.05% to 248.81% for Cambodian exporters; 12.81% to 135.77% for Chinese exporters; 9.48% to 56.14% for Colombian exporters; zero to 54.4% for Indian exporters; 3.1% to 112.22% for Malaysian exporters; zero to 60.26% for Taiwanese exporters; 26.32% to 47.56% for Turkish exporters; 51.25% to 92.34% for Vietnamese exporters; and at 11.33% for all Portuguese exporters.

AD suspension of liquidation and cash deposit requirements will take effect for entries on or after the date of publication of the preliminary determinations in the Federal Register, which should occur in the coming days.
