India Organic Soybean Meal: Details of AD/CV Duty Orders

The Commerce Department is issuing antidumping and countervailing duty orders on organic soybean meal from India (A-533-901/C-533-902). The orders, scheduled for publication May 16, set permanent antidumping and countervailing duties, which will remain in place unless revoked by Commerce in a sunset or changed circumstances review. Commerce will now begin conducting annual administrative reviews, if requested, to determine final assessments of AD/CVD on importers and make changes to cash deposit rates.

The order details a “gap period” of no CV duty liability for subject merchandise entered Jan. 1, 2022, through May 10, 2022, and of no AD liability for subject merchandise entered May 1, 2022, through May 10, 2022. Commerce may only suspend liquidation for a four-month period after its preliminary CVD determination, issued Sept. 3, 2021, and for six months after its preliminary AD determination, issued Nov. 2, 2021, without an International Trade Commission final affirmative injury determination in place. Commerce will order CBP to liquidate, without regard to AD or CVD, any entries during these respective gap periods.

Subject merchandise entered during the CV duty gap period but outside the antidumping duty gap period (i.e., Jan. 1, 2021, through April 30, 2022) will only be assessed antidumping duties.

AD/CV Suspension of Liq Instructions

Suspension of liquidation resumes for all entries of subject merchandise entered on or after May 11, the date that the final ITC affirmative injury determination was published.
