China and Taiwan Solar Products: Commerce Postpones Preliminary AD Determination

The Commerce Department is postponing until July 24 the preliminary determination in its antidumping duty investigations on crystalline silicon photovoltaic products from China (A-570-010) and Taiwan (A-583-853). The agency’s preliminary findings were originally due June 11, but Commerce says the investigation is “extraordinarily complicated.” Cash deposits of estimated AD duties may be required beginning on the date of Commerce’s preliminary determination, and in certain circumstances cash deposit requirements may be made retroactive 90 days before the agency’s preliminary finding.
