For exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all except the companies listed below), 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 2.66% applies.
In addition, there were no suspended, reviewable entries during the review period from 36 companies for which a review was requested, so Commerce rescinded the review for those companies, which are listed in Appendix II of the notice.
New Cash Deposit Rates Take Effect April 7
For entries on or after April 7, the publication date in the Federal Register of these final results, Commerce is setting new AD duty cash deposit rates for subject merchandise produced or exported by the companies listed below, as follows:
| Exporter | AD Rate |
|---|---|
| Inmax Sdn. Bhd. and Inmax Industries Sdn. Bhd. | 0.74% |
| Region International Co. Ltd. and Region System Sdn. Bhd. | 1.28% |
| Non-Individually examined companies (applies to four companies) | 1.01% |
Review average rate. Commerce listed in Appendix III the four companies not selected for individual review, which are subject to a rate that is the simple average of the margins calculated for Region and Inmax.
Assessment Rates
As part of this administrative review, Commerce also will calculate the AD it will assess on importers for entries of subject merchandise entered between July 1, 2022, and June 30, 2023. Commerce will direct CBP to liquidate entries during that period from Inmax and Region at importer-specific rates. Entries from the other importers subject to this review will be liquidated at the rates listed above.
(The review period is 07/01/22 - 06/30/23. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 2407290020 for a summary of the preliminary results of this review.)
