Estimated AD Cash Deposit Requirements
The following estimated AD duty cash deposit requirements are effective for all shipments of subject merchandise with a time of entry on or after February 28, 2011:
- For companies covered by this review, the cash deposit rate will be the rates listed above (No cash deposit is required for Navneet or Super Impex; however, they remain subject to the order);
- For previously reviewed or investigated companies other than those covered by this review, the cash deposit rate will be the company-specific rate established for the most recent period;
- If the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the less-than-fair-value investigation, but the producer is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recent period for the manufacturer of the subject merchandise; and
- If neither the exporter nor the producer is a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the investigation, the cash deposit rate will be 3.91 percent, the all-others rate established in the less-than-fair-value investigation.
Assessment Instructions
The ITA has calculated importer-specific ad valorem assessment rates for subject merchandise. Where the assessment rate is above de minimis, the ITA will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to assess duties on all entries of subject merchandise by that importer. The ITA will instruct CBP to liquidate without regard to AD duties any entries for which the assessment rate is de minimis. The ITA will issue assessment instructions to CBP within 15 days after February 28, 2011.
The ITA also adds that it clarified its “automatic assessment” regulation on May 6, 2003, which will apply to entries of subject merchandise during the review period produced by companies examined in this review (i.e., companies for which a dumping margin was calculated) where the companies did not know that their merchandise was destined for the U.S. In this instance, the ITA will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the 3.91 percent all-others rate for India if there is no company-specific rate for an intermediary company(ies) involved in the transaction.
