Commerce said it made changes to the rate preliminarily calculated for one of the two mandatory respondents in the review, resulting in a slightly lower rate for Deacero S.A.P.I. de C.V. (down from 13.46%).
New Cash Deposit Rates Take Effect Aug. 4
For entries on or after Aug. 4, the date these final results are scheduled for publication in the Federal Register, Commerce is setting new AD duty cash deposit rates as follows:
| Exporter or Producer | AD Rate |
|---|---|
| TA 2000 S.A. de C.V. (the successor-in-interest to Talleres y Aceros) | 18.09% |
| Deacero S.A.P.I. de C.V. | 13.45% |
For exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all except the companies listed above), 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 20.11% applies.
Assessment Rates for Entries October 2022 - September 2023
Commerce is using the rates it calculated in these final results to calculate assessments of AD on importers of subject merchandise for entries between Oct. 1, 2022, and Sept. 30, 2023. For entries from Deacero and TA 2000, Commerce is calculating importer-specific AD duty rates.
