Estimated AD Cash Deposit Requirements
The following estimated AD duty cash deposit requirements are effective for all shipments of subject merchandise with a time of entry on or after January 13, 2011:
- The cash deposit rate for the reviewed company will be the rate listed above;
- If the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, but was covered in a previous review or the original less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most recent period;
- If the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the original LTFV investigation, but the manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recent period for the manufacturer of the merchandise; and
- The cash deposit rate for all other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 30.69 percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation and modified during the section 129 determination. (See ITT's Online Archives or 04/29/09 news, 09042950, for BP summary.)
Assessment Instructions
The ITA has calculated an assessment rate for each importer of the subject merchandise covered by the review. The ITA will issue assessment instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection within 41 days after January 13, 2011.
The ITA adds that it clarified its automatic assessment regulation in May 2003, which applies to entries of subject merchandise during the period of review produced by Mexinox for which Mexinox did not know the merchandise was destined for the U.S. In such instances, the ITA will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the 30.69% all-others rate if there is no company-specific rate for an intermediary involved in the transaction. (See ITT's Online Archives or 06/02/03 news, 03060245, for BP summary of the ITA's May 2003 "automatic assessment" regulation.)
