Commerce said it is rescinding the review for a group of companies under the name Alcha -- Alcha International Holdings Limited and Jiangsu Alcha Aluminium Co., Ltd. -- because there were no suspended, reviewable entries during the review period. Commerce will instruct CBP to assess CVD on all entries from Alcha Group (see the notice for more information on this entity) in calendar year 2023 at a rate equal to the cash deposit of estimated CVD required at the time of entry.

Only the exporters for which an administrative review was requested are covered by this review. Cash deposit rates for all other exporters will not change. Commerce has ordered liquidation “as entered” for entries during the period of review from all exporters for which a review was not requested or review requests were withdrawn (ADCVDWeb Message # 4135430).

Cash Deposit Requirements

New CVD cash deposit requirements may take effect for the following companies beginning on the date of publication of the final results in the Federal Register, currently scheduled for October. Commerce preliminarily calculated the following CV duty cash deposit rates:
