Malaysia PC Wire Strand: Final Results of AD Admin Review

The Commerce Department published the final results of the antidumping duty administrative review on prestressed concrete steel wire strand from Malaysia (A-557-819). The agency modified its preliminary calculation method, based on comments received, but the final results didn't change the zero percent AD rate determined in the preliminary results for all four companies under review: Kiswire Sdn. Bhd.; Wei Dat Steel Wire Sdn. Bhd.; Southern Steel Sdn. Bhd.; and Southern PC Steel Sdn. Bhd. Commerce will liquidate entries from the four companies during the period Nov. 19, 2020, through May 31, 2022, without regard to AD, and future entries from the four won't be subject to an AD cash deposit requirement until further notice. The new rates take effect Jan. 3.

For exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all except the four listed above), cash deposit rates remain at the level set in the most recent review of each respective company. If the exporter has never been assigned its own AD rate but the manufacturer has, the rate assigned to the manufacturer applies. For merchandise manufactured and exported by companies that have never been assigned a cash deposit rate by Commerce, the all others rate of 5.13% applies.

(The review period is 11/19/20 - 05/31/22. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 2307100052 for a summary of the preliminary results of this administrative review.)
