New Cash Deposit Rates Take Effect April 19
For entries on or after April 19, the date the final results are set to be published in the Federal Register, Commerce is setting new AD cash deposit rates for the following companies:
| Exporter | AD Rate |
|---|---|
| Both-Well (Taizhou) Steel Fittings Co., Ltd. | 29.06% |
| Lianfa Stainless Steel Pipes & Valves (Qingyun) Co., Ltd. | 29.06% |
| Qingdao Bestflow Industrial Co., Ltd, | 29.06% |
| Xin Yi International Trade Co., Limited | 29.06% |
| Yingkou Guangming Pipeline Industry Co., Ltd. | 29.06% |
No shipments. Commerce continued to find that Jiangsu Forged Pipe Fittings Co., Ltd. did not have any exports to the U.S. during the period of review. The cash deposit rates currently in effect for Jiangsu will not change, and any entries reported to be from it will be assessed duties at the China-wide rate.
China-wide rate. Commerce continued its preliminary finding that 20 companies for which a review was initiated did not establish their eligibility for a separate rate because they failed to provide a separate rate application, a separate rate certification, or a no-shipment certification. The agency assigned them to the China-wide entity, with a current rate of 142.72%. See Appendix II of the notice for a list of the companies.
Assessment Rates for Entries November 2020 - October 2021
Commerce is using the rates it calculated in these final results to calculate assessments of AD on importers of subject merchandise for entries Nov. 1, 2020, through Oct. 31, 2021. Commerce will liquidate entries during that period from Both-Well at importer-specific rates, and from the other companies under review at the rates listed above.
(The period of investigation is 11/01/20 - 10/31/21. See Commerce’s notice for more information, including the scope of the investigation, detailed instructions on cash deposit rates, etc. See 2103250019 for a summary of the preliminary determination of this investigation.)
