China Solar Cells: Amended Final Results of AD Admin Review
The Commerce Department is amending previously amended final results of an antidumping duty administrative review on crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells, whether or not assembled into modules, from China (A-570-979). The changes are being made to comply with the final outcome of a Court of International Trade case (on Dec. 20, 2022) challenging the AD rate calculated for entries of subject merchandise in the review period December 2017 through November 2018.

In each case, the rate falls. The amended rates are effective Dec. 30, 2022.
Because all companies listed below except for JingAo Solar Co., Ltd., and Shanghai BYD Co., Ltd., have had final results published in subsequent AD administrative reviews, their current cash deposit rates will not change. For JingAo Solar Co., Ltd., Shanghai BYD Co., Ltd., the exporters that do not have a superseding cash deposit rate, Commerce will issue revised cash deposit instructions to CBP.
These amended final results will be used to set final assessments of AD duties on importers for subject merchandise entered Dec. 1, 2017, through Nov. 30, 2018. The new rates are as follows:
