New Cash Deposit Rates Take Effect June 23
For entries on or after June 23, Commerce is setting new AD duty cash deposit rates. For any other exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all exporters of subject merchandise except those listed below), cash deposit rates will remain at the level set in the most recent review of each respective company. For companies that have never been assigned a cash deposit rate by Commerce, the China-wide rate applies. The new rates are as follows:
| Exporter | AD Rate |
|---|---|
| Guangdong Dongyuan Kitchenware Industrial Co., Ltd. | 1.8% |
| Guangdong Yingao Kitchen Utensils Co. Ltd. | 1.68% |
| B&R Industries, Ltd. | 1.78% |
| Feidong Import & Export Co., Ltd. | 1.78% |
| Foshan Zhaoshun Trade Co., Ltd. | 1.78% |
| Jiangmen Hongmao Trading Co., Ltd. | 1.78% |
| Jiangmen New Star Hi-Tech Enterprise Ltd. | 1.78% |
| KaiPing Dawn Plumbing Products, Co., Ltd. | 1.78% |
| Nigbo Afa Kitchen and Bath Co., Ltd. | 1.78% |
| Xinhe Stainless Steel Products Co., Ltd. | 1.78% |
| Zhongshan Superte Kitchenware Co., Ltd. | 1.78% |
| Zhuhai KOHLER Kitchen & Bathroom Products, Co., Ltd. | 1.78% |
No shipments. Commerce found New Shichu Import and Export Company Limited had no exports to the U.S. during the period of review, so its AD rate will not change. Any entries under New Shichu's case numbers will be assessed duties at the 76.45% China-wide rate.
Assessment Rates for Entries April 2015 - March 2016
Commerce is using the rates it calculated in these final results to set assessments of AD duties on importers of subject merchandise for entries between April 1, 2015, and March 31, 2016. Commerce will liquidate entries from Dongyuan and Yingao during that period at importer-specific rates. Entries from the other companies under review will be liquidated at the rates listed above.
(The review period is 04/01/15 -- 03/31/16. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, and detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 1705050049 for a summary of the preliminary results of this administrative review.)
