China Wood Flooring: Amended Final Results of AD Admin Review

The Commerce Department is amending the final results of an antidumping duty administrative review on multilayered wood flooring (MLWF) from China (A-570-970) based on the final decision in a court case challenging those final results. In the final results of the AD review (see 1807300071), covering the period Dec. 1, 2015, though Nov. 30, 2016, Commerce assigned Jilin Forest Industry Jinqiao Flooring Group Co., Ltd. a 25.62% AD rate, as part of the China-wide entity. Based on the judgment in the June 9, 2023, court decision, Commerce calculated a revised AD rate for Jilin Forest of zero percent, applicable June 19, 2023.

Because Jilin Forest has a superseding cash deposit rate, i.e., there have been final results published in a subsequent administrative review, Commerce will not issue revised cash deposit instructions to CBP, and the current cash deposit rate will not change (see 2206300035).

The notice also said that Commerce remains, at this time, "enjoined by CIT order from liquidating entries that were exported by Jilin Forest, and were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption during the period December 1, 2015, through November 30, 2016."

(The review period is 12/01/15 - 11/30/16. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 1807300071 for a summary of the original final results of this administrative review.)
