Gap Period of No AD Suspension of Liq or AD Duties for Nov. 1-5
For this investigation, the four-month provisional measures period for which the AD suspension of liquidation may remain in effect before the order is issued began on Aug. 2 (the publication date of the preliminary determination) and ended on Nov. 30. Exporters of subject merchandise did not request a two-month extension of the provisional measures period, the ITA said.
As the International Trade Commission's final affirmative injury determination was published on Nov. 6, the ITA is instructing CBP to terminate the AD suspension of liquidation and to liquidate, without regard to AD duties, unliquidated entries of subject merchandise from the Korea entered on or after Dec. 1, and through Dec. 5 (the gap period).
(For subject merchandise from Taiwan entered on or after Aug. 2 through Nov. 30, suspension of liquidation and AD duty liability remains in effect.)
