The Commerce Department said it's rescinding the administrative review of the countervailing duty order on ceramic tile from China (C-570-109) for the period of review Jan. 1, 2023, through Dec. 31, 2023, because there were no reviewable, suspended entries of subject merchandise during the review period for the one company for which the review had been requested -- Cayenne Corporation Ltd. As such, cash deposit rates will not change and the current cash deposit requirements shall remain in effect until further notice. Commerce will instruct CBP to assess CVD on all appropriate entries, at rates equal to the cash deposit of estimated CVD required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, it said.
