Separate Rate Certifications/Applications for China

All firms listed in the ITA's notice that wish to either retain or receive separate-rate status in this administrative review must complete, as appropriate, either a Separate Rate Certification or a Separate Rate Application.

In order to demonstrate continued separate-rate eligibility, the ITA requires the China companies for whom a review was requested that were assigned a separate rate in the most recent segment of this proceeding in which they participated to certify that they continue to meet the criteria for obtaining a separate rate. Certifications are due 60 calendar days from after the publication of the notice; i.e. on or about April 29, 2012. Separate Rate Certification here.

For firms that have not previously been assigned a separate rate in a completed proceeding, or that have received a separate rate but have changed their corporate structure or name, the ITA requires a Separate Rate Application, which is due on or about April 29, 2012. Separate Rate Application here.

Notices of No Sales During the Review Period

If a producer or exporter named in this notice of initiation had no exports, sales, or entries during the period of review, it must notify the ITA within 60 days of the publication of this notice in the Federal Register; i.e. on or about April 29, 2012.

Respondent Selection

In the event the ITA limits the number of respondents for individual examination for administrative review, the ITA will select respondents based on volume data contained in responses to quantity and value (Q&V) questionnaires. Further, the ITA intends to limit the number of Q&V questionnaires issued based on U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data for U.S. imports during the period of review. Comments regarding the CBP data and respondent selection should be filed within five days of placement of the CBP data on the record. Q&V questionnaire available here.
