China Forged Steel Fittings: Prelim Results of AD/CVD Admin Reviews
The Commerce Department on Dec. 6 released the preliminary results of its antidumping and countervailing duty administrative reviews on forged steel fittings from China (A-570-067/C-570-068). The agency calculated an AD duty rate of 0.51%, and a CV duty rate of 13.39% for Both-Well (Taizhou) Steel Fittings Co., Ltd., the only company remaining under review. In the final results of this review, Commerce will set AD duty assessments for subject merchandise from Both-Well entered Nov. 1, 2019, through Oct. 31, 2020, and CV duty assessment rates for entries Jan. 1, 2019, through Dec. 31, 2019. Any changes to cash deposit requirements would take effect upon publication of the final results in the Federal Register.

Only the exporters for which an administrative review was requested are covered by these reviews. Cash deposit rates for all other exporters will not change. Commerce has ordered liquidation “as entered” for entries during the period of review from all exporters for which a review was not requested (ADCVDWeb Messages # 1043410, 1042406). In its AD duty preliminary results, Commerce is also rescinding that review for Shanghai Maorun International Co., Ltd., which withdrew its request for review, so entries from Shanghai Maorun will also be liquidated as entered.
(The AD duty period of review is 11/01/19 - 1-/31/20, and the CV duty period of review is 01/01/19 - 12/31/19. See the notice for additional information, including the scope of the order, potential cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc.)
