Only the exporters for which an administrative review was requested are covered by this review. 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 Message # 2075452).

No shipments. Commerce preliminarily found the other 60 companies under review did not have any exports to the U.S. during the period of review. If this finding is confirmed in the final results, these companies' cash deposit rates will not change in this review, and any entries under their case numbers between Jan. 1, 2020, and Dec. 31, 2020, will be assessed CV duties at the “all others” rate. See Appendix III in Commerce's notice for a full list.
Also, Commerce said it is rescinding this review with respect to Canadian Solar (USA) Inc., because it isn't its practice to review U.S. importers.
(The period of review is 01/01/20 - 12/31/20. See the notice for additional information, including the scope of the order, potential cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc.)
