New Cash Deposit Rates Took Effect June 11
For entries on or after June 11, the date the final results were published in the Federal Register, Commerce set new AD cash deposit rates for the following companies:
| Exporter | AD Rate |
|---|---|
| Qingdao Bestflow Industrial Co., Ltd. | 118.97% |
| Both-Well (Taizhou) Steel Fittings Co., Ltd. | 118.97% |
China-wide. Commerce said 23 companies under review didn't demonstrate independence from state control, or otherwise didn't respond to Commerce Department questionnaires, and assigned these companies to the China-wide entity with a rate of 142.72%. See Appendix II of Commerce's notice for a full list of these companies.
No shipments. Commerce continued to find, as it did in the preliminary results, that Xin Yi International Trade Co., Limited didn't have any exports to the U.S. during the period of review. So the cash deposit rates currently in effect for Xin Yi won't change, and any entries during the period of review reported under its case number will be assessed duties at the 142.72% China-wide rate.
Assessment Rates for Entries November 2021 - October 2022
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, 2021, through Oct. 31, 2022. Commerce will liquidate entries during that period from Qingdao Bestflow at importer-specific rates, and from the other companies under review at the rates listed above.
(The period of investigation is 11/01/21 - 10/31/22. See Commerce’s notice for more information, including the scope of the investigation, detailed instructions on cash deposit rates, etc. See 2312080061 for a summary of the preliminary determination of this investigation.)
