In addition, Commerce has rescinded this review for 164 companies with no reviewable, suspended entries of subject merchandise during the review period. See Appendix III of the notice for a complete list.
Commerce has ordered liquidation “as entered” at the cash deposit rate in effect at the time of entry for subject merchandise from exporters for which a review was not requested (ADCVDWeb Message # 3142404).
Cash Deposit Requirements
Once Commerce issues its final results, new AD duty cash deposit requirements may take effect for some companies, beginning on the date of publication of the final results in the Federal Register. Commerce preliminarily calculated the following AD duty cash deposit rates:
| Exporter | AD Rate (Prelim) |
|---|---|
| NK Marine Exports LLP | 2.49% |
| RSA Marines/Royal Oceans | zero |
| Review Average Rate (applicable to 33 companies) | 2.49% |
Average rate. Commerce is not individually investigating 33 companies subject to this review and instead preliminarily assigned them an average rate using the rates calculated for the two mandatory respondents. See Appendix II in Commerce's notice for a full list of these 33 companies.
Assessment Rates
As part of this administrative review, Commerce will also calculate the AD it will assess on importers for entries of subject merchandise entered between Feb. 1, 2022, and Jan. 31, 2023. If these preliminary results are confirmed in the final results, entries of subject merchandise exported by NK Marine Exports LLP will be assessed AD at importer-specific rates, and subject merchandise from RSA Marines/Royal Oceans will be liquidated without regard to AD. Importers of subject merchandise exported by the other 33 companies under review will be assessed AD at the rates set in the final results.
(The period of review is 02/01/22 - 01/31/23. See the notice for additional information, including the scope of the order, potential cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc.)
