For all such shipments and/or entries on or 

after the date of publication of this 

preliminary determination in the Federal 

Register, through 14 days after the date of 

publication of this preliminary determination 

in the Federal Register, for which 

certifications are required, importers should 

complete the required certifications no later 

than 14 days after the date of publication of 

this preliminary determination in the Federal

edited to reflect that the certification was 

completed within the time frame specified 

above. For example, the bullet in the 

importer certification that reads: ‘‘This 

certification was completed at or prior to the 

time of Entry Summary,’’ could be edited as 

follows: ‘‘The imports referenced herein 

entered on {insert date}. This certification 

was completed on mm/dd/yyyy, within 14 

days of the date of publication of the Federal 

Register notice of the preliminary 

determination of circumvention.’’ 

For all shipments and/or entries made later 

than the 14th day after the date of 

publication of this preliminary determination 

in the Federal Register for which 

certifications are required, importers should 

complete the required certification at or prior 

to the date of Entry Summary. 

Appendix III—Importer Certification 

I hereby certify that: 

(A) My name is {IMPORTING COMPANY 

OFFICIAL’S NAME} and I am an official of 

{NAME OF IMPORTING COMPANY}, 

located at {ADDRESS OF IMPORTING 

COMPANY}. 

(B) I have direct personal knowledge of the 

facts regarding the importation into the 

Customs territory of the United States of 

subject-paper rolls produced in Brazil that 

entered under entry summary number(s), 

identified below, and which are covered by 

this certification. Subject-paper rolls are 

defined as certain uncoated paper rolls 

commonly, but not exclusively, known as 

‘‘sheeter rolls,’’ (rolls with paper that weigh 

at least 40 grams per square meter but not 

more than 150 grams per square meter; and 

paper that either is a white paper with a GE 

brightness level of 83 +/¥1% or higher or is 

a colored paper) that may be converted into 

subject merchandise. The uncoated paper 

rolls are typically, but not exclusively, 

between 52 and 103 inches wide and 50 

inches in diameter. Subject-paper rolls are 

classified under HTSUS category 4802.55. 

‘‘Direct personal knowledge’’ refers to facts 

the certifying party is expected to have in its 

own records. For example, the importer 

should have direct personal knowledge of the 

importation of the product (e.g., the name of 

the exporter) in its records. 

(C) If the importer is acting on behalf of the 

first U.S. customer, complete this paragraph, 

if not put ‘‘NA’’ at the end of this paragraph: 

The imported subject-paper rolls covered by 

this certification were imported by {NAME 

OF IMPORTING COMPANY} on behalf of 

{NAME OF U.S. CUSTOMER}, located at 

{ADDRESS OF U.S. CUSTOMER}. 

(D) The imported subject-paper rolls 

covered by this certification were shipped to 

{NAME OF PARTY TO WHOM 

MERCHANDISE WAS FIRST SHIPPED IN 

THE UNITED STATES}, located at 

{ADDRESS OF SHIPMENT}. 

(E) Select appropriate statement below: 

ll I have direct personal knowledge of 

the facts regarding the end-use of the 

imported product because my company is the 

end-user of the imported product covered by 

this certification and I certify that the 

imported subject-paper rolls will not be used 

to produce subject merchandise. ‘‘Direct 

personal knowledge’’ includes information 

contained within my company’s books and 

records. 

ll I have personal knowledge of the facts 

regarding the end-use of the imported 

product because my company is not the enduser of the imported product covered by this 

certification. However, I have been able to 

contact the end-user of the imported product 

and confirm that it will not use this product 

to produce subject merchandise. The enduser of the imported product is {COMPANY 

NAME} located at {ADDRESS}. ‘‘Personal 

knowledge’’ includes facts obtained from 

another party (e.g., correspondence received 

by the importer from the end-user of the 

product). 

(F) The imported subject-paper rolls 

covered by this certification will not be 

further processed into uncoated paper sheets 

in the United States. (NOTE: For 

certifications related to entries made on or 

after the date of publication of the 

Preliminary Determination, and through 14 

days after the date of publication of the 

Preliminary Determination, the importer 

should replace ‘‘will not be further 

processed’’ with ‘‘were not further 

processed’’ in the certification, as necessary). 

(G) This certification applies to the 

following entries (repeat this block as many 

times as necessary): 

Entry Summary #: 

Entry Summary Line Item #: 

Foreign Seller: 

Foreign Seller’s Address: 

Foreign Seller’s Invoice #: 

Foreign Seller’s Invoice Line Item #: 

Producer: 

Producer’s Address: 

(H) I understand that {NAME OF 

IMPORTING COMPANY} is required to 

maintain a copy of this certification and 

sufficient documentation supporting this 

certification (i.e., documents maintained in 

the normal course of business, or documents 

obtained by the certifying party, for example, 

mill certificates, production records, 

invoices, etc.) for the later of: (1) A period of 

five years from the date of entry; or (2) a 

period of three years after the conclusion of 

any litigation in the United States courts 

regarding such entries. 

(I) I understand that {NAME OF 

IMPORTING COMPANY} is required to 

provide this certification and supporting 

records to U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP) and/or the Department of 

Commerce (Commerce), upon request by the 

respective agency. 

(J) I understand that the claims made 

herein, and the substantiating 

documentation, are subject to verification by 

CBP and/or Commerce. 

(K) I understand that failure to maintain 

the required certifications, and/or failure to 

substantiate the claims made herein, and/or 

failure to allow CBP and/or Commerce to 

verify the claims made herein, may result in 

a de facto determination that all entries to 

which this certification applies are within 

the scope of the antidumping duty order on 

certain uncoated paper from Brazil. I 

understand that such finding will result in: 

(i) Suspension of liquidation of all 

unliquidated entries (and entries for which 

liquidation has not become final) for which 

these requirements were not met; 

(ii) the requirement that the importer post 

applicable antidumping duty cash deposits 

(as appropriate) equal to the rates determined 

by Commerce; and 

(iii) the revocation of {NAME OF 

IMPORTING COMPANY}’s privilege to 

certify future imports of subject-paper rolls 

from Brazil as not being imported for 

purposes of further processing into the 

United States into uncoated paper sheets. 

(L) I understand that agents of the 

importer, such as brokers, are not permitted 

to make this certification. Where a broker or 

other party was used to facilitate the entry 

process, {NAME OF IMPORTING 

COMPANY} obtained the entry summary 

number and date of entry summary from that 

party. 

(M) This certification was completed at or 

prior to the date of entry summary. 

(N) I am aware that U.S. law (including, 

but not limited to, 18 U.S.C. 1001) imposes 

criminal sanctions on individuals who 

knowingly and willfully make material false 

statements to the U.S. government.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Commerce published the notice of 

initiation of this administrative review 

on November 12, 2019.1 Commerce 

extended the deadline for the 

preliminary results of this 

administrative review until September 

29, 2020.2 On April 24, 2020, Commerce 

tolled all deadlines in administrative 

reviews by 50 days.3 On July 21, 2020, 

Commerce tolled all deadlines in 

administrative reviews by an additional 

60 days.4 Therefore, the deadline for the 

preliminary results of this review is 

January 19, 2021. For a complete 

description of the events that followed 

the initiation of this administrative 

review, see the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum.5

Scope of the Order 

The products covered by the order are 

narrow woven ribbons with woven 

selvedge from China. For a complete 

description of the scope of the order, see

Methodology 

Commerce is conducting this 

countervailing duty (CVD) review in 

accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) of 

the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 

Act). For each of the subsidy programs 

found countervailable, Commerce 

preliminarily determines that there is a 

subsidy, i.e., a financial contribution by 

an ‘‘authority’’ that gives rise to a 

benefit to the recipient, and that the 

subsidy is specific.7

For a full description of the 

methodology underlying our 

preliminary conclusions, including our 

reliance, in part, on adverse facts 

available pursuant to sections 776(a) 

and (b) of the Act, see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum.8 The 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum is a 

public document and is on file 

electronically via Enforcement and 

Compliance’s Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Centralized 

Electronic Service System (ACCESS).

at http://access.trade.gov. In addition, a 

complete version of the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum can be accessed 

directly at https://

enforcement.trade.gov/frn/summary/ 

prc/prc-fr.htm. The signed and 

electronic versions of the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum are identical in 

content.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On October 18, 2019, Commerce 

initiated anti-circumvention inquiries to 

determine whether imports of certain 

uncoated paper rolls that are further 

processed into uncoated paper sheets in 

the United States 2 are circumventing 

the Orders 3 on certain uncoated paper 

from Indonesia. Commerce issued 

questionnaires soliciting data on the 

quantity and value of exports of 

uncoated paper rolls to various 

companies. We received responses to 

these questionnaires from all parties 

except Midwest Converting and 

Mohawk Fine Papers Inc. 

Subsequently, Commerce selected 

three Indonesian companies/company 

groups as mandatory respondents— 

APRIL Fine Paper Macao Offshore 

Limited/APRIL International Enterprise 

Pte. Ltd./A P Fine Paper Trading (Hong 

Kong) Limited/PT Anugrah Kertas 

Utama,/PT Riau Andalan Kertas 

(collectively, APRIL); Great Champ 

Trading Limited (Great Champ); and PT. 

Indah Kiat Pulp and Paper Tbk/PT. 

Pabrik Kertas Tjiwi Kimia Tbk/Pindo 

Deli Pulp and Paper (collectively, APP 

Indonesian Mills)—and required them 

to respond to a full questionnaire 

relating to their export activity with 

respect to uncoated paper rolls.4 We 

additionally determined to examine 

merchandise imported by three U.S. 

companies and to obtain information 

related to their paper conversion 

operations from nine additional U.S. 

companies.5 We received full 

questionnaire, supplemental 

questionnaire, and conversion 

questionnaire responses, as applicable 

from six of these companies and a 

partial response from a seventh 

company, CellMark Paper, Inc. 

(CellMark). Five companies (i.e., 

Advanced Paper Enterprises, Inc.; 

Alliance Converting LLC; Case Paper 

Company Inc.; LinkMax; and 

Northwoods Paper Converting) failed to 

respond. For a complete description of 

the events that followed the initiation of 

these inquiries, see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum. 

Scope of the Orders 

The merchandise subject to the 

Orders includes uncoated paper in sheet 

form; weighing at least 40 grams per 

square meter but not more than 150 

grams per square meter; that either is a 

white paper with a GE brightness level 

of 85 or higher or is a colored paper; 

whether or not surface-decorated, 

printed (except as described below), 

embossed, perforated, or punched; 

irrespective of the smoothness of the 

surface; and irrespective of dimensions 

(Certain Uncoated Paper). For a full 

description of the scope, see the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum.6
