AD: China Certain Lined Paper Products

The order also reflects an amended final AD duty determination which revises the AD duty rates for mandatory respondent Lian Li, and as a result, for the companies that qualified for separate-rate status.

Combination rates. In the notice of initiation for this AD duty investigation, the ITA stated that it would calculate exporter/manufacturer combination rates for respondents that are eligible for a separate rate in this AD duty investigation. (See ITT's Online Archives or 04/11/05 news, (Ref: 05041110), for BP summary regarding combination rates, etc.)

Final negative critical circumstances for all companies. According to the ITA, the International Trade Commission (ITC) has determined that critical circumstances do not exist for certain lined paper products from China.

This ITC determination reverses the ITA’s findings of final affirmative critical circumstances for Changjiang, Hengda, Linqing Silver, SFTE, Wah Kin, Maxleaf, MGA, Yantai, as well as companies subject to the China-wide entity rate (including Planet and Planet (HK)). As a result, the ITA will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to lift suspension of liquidation, and release any bond or other security, and refund any AD cash deposit made on or after January 17, 2006 but before April 17, 2006, the date of the preliminary AD duty determination, for these companies (as listed below).

Suspension of liquidation continues; AD cash deposit only. The ITA will instruct CBP to continue to suspend liquidation on or after April 17, 2006 and to require, at the same time as importers would normally deposit estimated duties, an AD cash deposit at the revised or continuing rates (weighted average margins) listed below, for entries of subject merchandise with a time of entry on or after September 25, 2006¹:
