Indonesia Polyester Textured Yarn: Amended Final Determination of AD Investigation

The Commerce Department is amending the Oct. 25, 2021, final determination in an antidumping duty investigation on polyester textured yarn from Indonesia (A-560-838), based on the final decision, handed down last month in an Oct. 11 Court of International Trade case challenging those final results. Commerce calculated a revised antidumping duty rate for one respondent, PT. Asia Pacific Fibers Tbk, changing it from 26.07% to 9.2%. This rate change also affected the "all-others" rate in the investigation, which moved higher, from 7.47% to 8.72%.
