Commerce to Set Final AD/CV Duty Assessments, New Cash Deposit Rates

In order to demonstrate separate-rate eligibility, Commerce requires Chinese and Vietnamese companies for whom a review was requested that were assigned a separate rate in the most recent segment of this proceeding in which they participated to certify that they continue to meet the criteria for obtaining a separate rate. Certifications are due 30 calendar days from the publication of the notice (i.e., Jan. 17).
Rate Certifications and the Separate Rate Status Applications are available on Commerce's website.
