Commerce upheld its preliminary results with regard to rescinding the review for 12 companies subject to this AD review that had no reviewable shipments for the review period (see Appendix III of the notice for the complete list). Their AD will be assessed at a rate equal to the cash deposit of estimated antidumping duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse.
New Cash Deposit Rates Take Effect Sept. 18
For entries on or after Sept. 18, the date these final results are set to be published in the Federal Register, Commerce is setting new AD duty cash deposit rates. For any other exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all exporters of subject merchandise except those listed below), cash deposit rates will remain at the level set in the most recent review of each respective company. For companies that have never been assigned a cash deposit rate by Commerce, the China-wide rate of 220.87% applies. The new rates are as follows:
| Exporter | AD Rate |
|---|---|
| Fujian Jinquan Trade Co., Ltd./ Baiyuan Wood Machining Co., Ltd. | 4.25% |
| Yinfeng Imp & Exp Trading Co., Ltd./ Fujian Province Youxi City Mangrove Wood Machining Co., Ltd. | zero |
| Average rate for 22 companies not individually examined that qualify for separate rate * | 4.25% |
* See Commerce's notice, Appendix II, for the full list of 22 companies that were assigned separate rates but were not under individual review.
Review average rate. The 4.25% review average rate applies to 22 companies that demonstrated independence from state control but were not individually reviewed.
China-wide rate. Commerce found that four companies did not establish their eligibility for a separate rate because they failed to provide a separate rate application, a separate rate certification, or a no-shipment certification. The agency assigned them to the China-wide entity, with a current rate of 220.87%. The companies are: Aventra, Inc.; China Cornici, Co. Ltd.; Gaomi Hongtai Home Furniture Co., Ltd.; and Shuyang Zhongding Decoration Materials Co., Ltd.
Assessment Rates for Entries February 2022 - January 2023
Commerce is using the rates it calculated in these final results to calculate assessments of AD duties on importers of subject merchandise for entries Feb. 1, 2022, through Jan. 31, 2023. Entries from Fujian Jinquan will be assessed AD at importer-specific rates, and entries from Yinfeng/Mangrove will be liquidated without regard to AD. Entries from the other companies under review will be liquidated at the rates listed above.
(The review period is 02/01/22 - 01/31/23. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 2403080051 for a summary of the preliminary results of this administrative review.)
