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 March 22, 2011:

  1. For the exporters listed above, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in these final results of review. (No cash deposit will be required for CL-Fish, Vinh Hoan, or Vinh Quang, as they have an AD duty rate of zero; however, they remain subject to the order);
  2. For previously investigated or reviewed Vietnamese and non-Vietnamese exporters not listed above that have separate rates, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the exporter-specific rate published for the most recent period;
  3. For all Vietnamese exporters of subject merchandise which have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the Vietnamese-wide rate of $2.11 per kilogram; and
  4. For all non-Vietnamese exporters of subject merchandise which have not received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to the Vietnamese exporters that supplied that non-Vietnamese exporter.

Assessment Instructions

The ITA has calculated importer- or customer-specific per-unit duty assessment rates for the subject merchandise. The ITA will issue assessment instructions to CBP within 15 days after March 22, 2011.
