 AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.
 SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) determines that, except as noted below, imports of certain crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells, whether or not assembled into modules (solar cells and modules), that have been completed in the Kingdom of Cambodia (Cambodia), Malaysia, the Kingdom of Thailand (Thailand), or the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (Vietnam), using parts and components produced in the People's Republic of China (China), as specified below, that are then subsequently exported from Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, or Vietnam to the United States are circumventing the antidumping duty (AD) and countervailing duty (CVD) orders on solar cells and modules from China.
 DATES: Applicable August 23, 2023.
 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jose Rivera, Peter Shaw, or Toni Page (Cambodia and Malaysia) and Jeff Pedersen or Paola Aleman Ordaz (Thailand and Vietnam), Offices VII and IV, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-0842, (202) 482-1398, (202) 482-0697, (202) 482-2769, and (202) 482-4031, respectively.


SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:  Background On December 8, 2022, Commerce published the preliminary determinations [1]
                    
                     of the circumvention inquiries of the AD and CVD orders on solar cells and modules from China. The circumvention inquiries concern solar cells and modules which were completed in Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, or Vietnam using parts and components manufactured in China.[2]
                    
                     We invited parties to comment on the 
                    *Preliminary Determinations.* On December 23, 2022, Sonali Energees USA LLC (Sonali) filed a Scope Ruling Application in which it requested that Commerce determine that the solar modules that it imports into the United States from Cambodia are outside the scope of the 
                    *Orders.*[3]
                    
                     On January 20, 2023, Commerce notified all interested parties that it would address Sonali's scope ruling request in the circumvention inquiry covering Cambodia.[4] A summary of events that occurred since Commerce published the 
                    *Preliminary Determinations,*
                     as well as a full discussion of the issues raised by parties for these final determinations, may be found in the Issues and Decision Memoranda.[5]
                    
                     Commerce conducted the 
                    ( print page 57420)
                    scope inquiry in accordance with 19 CFR 351.225(c) and (h) and these circumvention inquiries in accordance with section 781(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act) and 19 CFR 351.226. Scope of the Orders The products subject to the 
                    *Orders*
                     are solar cells and modules. For a full description of the scope of the 
                    *Orders, see*
                     the Issues and Decision Memoranda.[6] Scope Ruling The scope ruling covers certain solar modules that have been completed in Cambodia, using wafers from China, that are subsequently exported from Cambodia to the United States. Merchandise Subject to the Circumvention Inquiries The circumvention inquiries cover certain solar cells and modules that have been completed in Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, or Vietnam, using parts and components from China, as specified below, that are subsequently exported from Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, or Vietnam to the United States (inquiry merchandise). Specifically, these circumvention inquiries cover: (A) crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells that meet the physical description of crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells in the scope of the underlying 
                    *Orders,*
                     subject to the exclusions therein, whether or not partially or fully assembled into other products, that were produced in Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, or Vietnam, from wafers produced in China; and (B) modules, laminates, and panels consisting of crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells, subject to the exclusions for certain panels in the scope of the underlying orders, whether or not partially or fully assembled into other products, that were produced in Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, or Vietnam from wafers produced in China and where more than two of the following components in the module/laminate/panel were produced in China: (1) silver paste; (2) aluminum frames; (3) glass; (4) backsheets; (5) ethylene vinyl acetate sheets; and (6) junction boxes. If modules, laminates, and panels consisting of crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells do not meet both of the conditions in item (B) above, then these circumvention inquiries do not cover the modules, laminates, and panels, or the crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells within the modules, laminates, and panels, even if those crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells were produced in Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, or Vietnam from wafers produced in China. Wafers produced outside of China with polysilicon sourced from China are not considered to be wafers produced in China for purposes of these circumvention inquiries. Methodology Commerce made the final scope determination in accordance with 19 CFR 351.225. Commerce made these final circumvention findings in accordance with section 781(b) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.226. Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs submitted by parties in these inquiries are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memoranda. Commerce did not receive any comments on Sonali's Scope Ruling Application. A list of topics included in the Issues and Decision Memoranda are included as Appendix I to this notice. The Issues and Decision Memoranda are public documents and are on file electronically via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS). ACCESS is available to registered users at 
                    *https://access.trade.gov.*
                     In addition, complete versions of the Issues and Decision Memoranda can be accessed directly at 
                    *https://access.trade.gov/​public/​FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.* Final Scope Ruling As detailed in the Cambodia IDM, we find that the merchandise described in Sonali's Scope Ruling Application is not covered by the scope of the 
                    *Orders.*
                     However, Sonali's merchandise is subject to Commerce's determination in the circumvention inquiry involving Cambodia. Final Determinations of Circumvention As detailed in the Issues and Decision Memoranda for Cambodia, Malaysia, and Vietnam, and in the 
                    *Preliminary Determination*
                     for Thailand, with the exception of certain U.S. imports from the exporters identified in Appendix III to this notice, we determine that U.S. imports of inquiry merchandise are circumventing the 
                    *Orders*
                     on a country-wide basis. As a result, we determine that this merchandise is covered by the 
                    *Orders.* We determine, pursuant to section 781(b) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.225(g), that solar cells/solar modules exported from, and produced in, Malaysia, or Vietnam by the entities listed for each of those countries in Appendix III to this notice, using wafers produced in China that were exported by specific companies are not circumventing the 
                    *Orders.* After considering comments from interested parties, we determine to not apply adverse facts available to Vietnam Sunergy Joint Stock Company.[7] *See*
                     the “Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposit Requirements” section below for details regarding suspension of liquidation and cash deposit requirements. 
                    *See*
                     the “Certification” and “Certification Requirements” section below for details regarding the use of certifications. Use of Adverse Facts Available In the 
                    *Preliminary Determinations,*
                     we relied on the facts available under section 776(a) of the Act, including facts available with adverse inferences under section 776(b) of the Act, where appropriate. In particular, we requested information from certain companies in each of the examined countries, including the quantity and value (Q&V) of their exports during the inquiry period for purposes of respondent selection. In the Q&V questionnaire, Commerce explained that, if the company to which Commerce issued the questionnaire fails to respond to the questionnaire, or fails to provide the requested information, Commerce may find that the company failed to cooperate by not acting to the best of its ability to comply with the request for information, and may use an inference that is adverse to the company's interests in selecting from the facts otherwise available. Certain companies to which Commerce issued the Q&V questionnaire in the Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam inquiries received, but failed to timely respond to, the Q&V questionnaire.[8] Additionally, New East Solar Energy (Cambodia) Co., Ltd.[9]
                    
                     and Vina Solar Technology Co., Ltd.[10]
                    
                     refused to participate in verification. 
 
 Therefore, we find that necessary information is not available on the record and that the companies that failed to timely respond to the Q&V questionnaire withheld requested information, failed to provide requested information by the deadline or in the form and manner requested, significantly impeded these inquiries, and that the companies that refused to be verified significantly impeded these inquiries and provided information that could not be verified, within the meaning of sections 776(a)(2)(A)-(D) of the Act. Moreover, we find that these companies failed to cooperate to the best of their ability to provide the requested information, within the meaning of section 776(b) of the Act, because they either did not provide a timely response to Commerce's Q&V questionnaire or did not allow their submitted information to be verified. Consequently, we have used adverse inferences with respect to these companies in selecting from among the facts otherwise available on the record, pursuant to sections 776(a) and (b) of the Act. Based on the adverse facts available used, we determine that the companies listed in Appendix II to this notice exported inquiry merchandise and that U.S. entries of that merchandise are circumventing the 
                    *Orders.*
                     As noted above, we are no longer applying adverse facts available to Vietnam Sunergy Joint Stock Company and this company has been removed from the list in Appendix II.[11]
                    
                     Additionally, with the exception of the “Applicable Entries” certification, which is described in the “Certifications” section below, we are precluding the companies listed in Appendix II to this notice from participating in the certification programs that we are establishing for exports of solar cells and modules from Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam. U.S. entries of inquiry merchandise made on or after April 1, 2022, that are ineligible for certification based on the failure of the companies listed in Appendix II to cooperate, or for other reasons, shall remain subject to suspension of liquidation until final assessment instructions on those entries are issued, whether by automatic liquidation instructions, or by instructions pursuant to the final results of an administrative review. After considering comments from interested parties, we determined that interested parties that wish to have their suspended non-“Applicable Entries,” if any, reviewed, and/or their ineligibility for the certification program re-evaluated, should request an administrative review of the relevant suspended entries during the next anniversary month of these 
                    *Orders*
                     (
                    *i.e.,*
                     December 2023).[12]
                    
                     The requestor should note in the request for an administrative review that: (1) it believes that all the imported merchandise from the company identified in Appendix II would meet the certification requirements in Appendix VI of this 
                    **Federal Register**
                     notice; and (2) that the requestor is seeking a review in order for Commerce to reconsider the exporter/producer's eligibility to certify to that fact. Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposit Requirements On June 6, 2022, the President of the United States signed 
                    *Presidential Proclamation 10414,*
                     “Declaration of Emergency and Authorization for Temporary Extensions of Time and Duty-Free Importation of Solar Cells and Modules from Southeast Asia.” [13]
                    
                     In 
                    *Presidential Proclamation 10414,*
                     the President directed the Secretary of Commerce (the Secretary) to: consider taking appropriate action under section 1318(a) of title 19, United States Code, to permit, until 24 months after the date of this proclamation or until the emergency declared herein has terminated, whichever occurs first, under such regulations and under such conditions as the Secretary may prescribe, the importation, free of the collection of duties and estimated duties, if applicable, under sections 1671, 1673, 1675, and 1677j of title 19, United States Code, {(sections 701, 731, 751 and 781 of the Act)} of certain solar cells and modules exported from the Kingdom of Cambodia, Malaysia, the Kingdom of Thailand, and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, and that are not already subject to an antidumping or countervailing duty order as of the date of this proclamation . . . On September 12, 2022, Commerce added Part 362 to its regulations to implement 
                    *Presidential Proclamation 10414.*
                     Pursuant to 19 CFR 362.103(b)(1)(i), Commerce will direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to discontinue the suspension of liquidation and collection of cash deposits that were ordered based on Commerce's initiation of these circumvention inquiries. In addition, pursuant to 19 CFR 362.103(b)(1)(ii) and (iii), Commerce will not direct CBP to suspend liquidation, and require cash deposits, of estimated ADs and CVDs based on these affirmative determinations of circumvention on, any “Applicable Entries.” However, Commerce will direct CBP to suspend liquidation, and collect cash deposits, of estimated ADs and CVDs based on these affirmative determinations of circumvention on, imports of “Southeast Asian-Completed cells and modules” that are not “Applicable Entries.” Pursuant to 19 CFR 362.102, `Southeast Asian-Completed Cells and Modules” are: crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells, whether or not assembled into modules (solar cells and modules), which are completed in the Kingdom of Cambodia, Malaysia, the Kingdom of Thailand, or the Socialist Republic of Vietnam using parts and components manufactured in the People's Republic of China, and subsequently exported from Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, or Vietnam to the United States. These are cells and modules subject to the Solar Circumvention Inquiries. Southeast Asian-Completed Cells and Modules does not mean solar cells and modules that, on June 6, 2022, the date Proclamation 10414 was signed, were already subject to Certain Solar Orders.[14] “Applicable Entries means the entries of Southeast Asian-Completed Cells and Modules that are entered into the United States, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption before the Date of Termination and, for entries that enter after November 15, 2022, are used in the United States by the Utilization Expiration Date.” [15]
                    
                     The “Date of Termination” is “June 6, 2024, or the date the emergency described in 
                    *Presidential Proclamation 10414*
                     has been terminated, whichever occurs first.” [16]
                    
                     The “Utilization Expiration Date” is “the date 180 days after the Date of Termination.” [17]
                    
                     “Utilization and utilized means the Southeast Asian-Completed Cells and Modules will be used or installed in the United States. Merchandise which remains in inventory or a warehouse in the United States, is resold to another party, is subsequently exported, or is destroyed after importation is not considered utilized for purposes of” the provisions in Part 362 of the regulations.[18] 
 
 Therefore, based on these affirmative determinations of circumvention, Commerce will direct CBP to continue to suspend liquidation of, and collect cash deposits of the applicable estimated ADs and CVDs on, U.S. imports of Southeast Asian-completed solar cells and solar modules that are not “Applicable Entries” that were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after April 1, 2022, the date of publication of initiation of these circumvention inquiries in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    ,[19]
                    
                     but prior to the Date of Termination of 
                    *Presidential Proclamation 10414.*
                     Specifically, with the exception of the entries for which the importer and exporter have met the requirements of the relevant certifications described in the “Certified Entries” section of this notice below, Commerce will direct CBP to implement the following cash deposit requirements for U.S. entries of “Southeast Asian-completed cells and modules” that are not “Applicable Entries”: (1) for exporters of the solar cells or solar modules that have a company-specific cash deposit rate under the 
                    *AD Order*
                     and/or 
                    *CVD Order,*
                     the cash deposit rate will be the company-specific AD and/or CVD cash deposit rate established for that company in the most recently-completed segment of the solar cells proceedings; (2) for exporters of the solar cells or solar modules that do not have a company-specific cash deposit rate under the 
                    *AD Order*
                     and/or 
                    *CVD Order,*
                     the cash deposit rate will be the company-specific cash deposit rate established under the 
                    *AD Order*
                     and/or 
                    *CVD Order*
                     for the company in China that exported the wafers to the producer/exporter in the relevant third country (
                    *i.e.,*
                     Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, or Vietnam) that were incorporated in the imported solar cells or solar modules; and (3) if neither the exporter of the solar cells or solar modules nor the exporter of the wafers described in item (2) above has a company-specific cash deposit rate, the AD cash deposit rate will be the China-wide rate (238.95 percent), and the CVD cash deposit rate will be the all-others rate (15.24 percent). Commerce has established the following third-country case numbers in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) for such entries: Cambodia—A-555-902-000/C-555-903-000; Malaysia—A-557-988-000/C-557-989-000; Thailand—A-549-988-000/C-549-989-000; and Vietnam—A-552-988-000/C-552-989-000. If the exporter of the wafers described in the cash deposit requirements above has its own company-specific cash deposit rate under the 
                    *Orders,*
                     the importer, producer, or exporter of inquiry merchandise containing those wafers may file a request in ACCESS on the record of the applicable proceeding segment that Commerce establish a case number in ACE for the 
                    *Orders*
                     for the applicable third-country that is specific to the Chinese wafer exporter. CBP may also submit such a request to Commerce through the ACE AD/CVD Portal Inquiry System. Entries on or After Termination of Presidential Proclamation 10414 Upon termination of the 
                    *Presidential Proclamation 10414,*
                     Commerce will issue instructions to CBP that are described in 19 CFR 362.103(b)(2). Further, consistent with 19 CFR 362.103(b)(3), after the 
                    *Preliminary Determinations,*
                     Commerce issued instructions to CBP pursuant to 19 CFR 362.103(b)(3).[20] Certified Entries Entries prior to the Date of Termination for which the importer and exporter have met the certification requirements described below and in Appendix IV, V, or VI to this notice, and entries on or after the Date for Termination for which the importer and exporter have met the certification requirements described below and in Appendix V or VI to this notice, will not be subject to suspension of liquidation, or the cash deposit requirements described above. Failure to comply with the applicable requisite certification requirements may result in the merchandise being subject to ADs and CVDs. Certifications In order to administer these country-wide affirmative determinations of circumvention, and the company-specific negative determinations of circumvention, and to implement 
                    *Presidential Proclamation 10414,*
                     Commerce has established the following types of certifications: (1) importer and exporter certifications that specific entries meet the regulatory definition of “Applicable Entries” (
                    *see*
                     Appendix IV to this notice); (2) importer and exporter certifications that specific entries are not subject to suspension of liquidation or the collection of cash deposits based on the negative circumvention determinations with respect to the exporters listed in Appendix III to this notice in combination with certain wafer exporters (
                    *see*
                     Appendix V to this notice); and (3) importer and exporter certifications that specific entries of solar cells or solar modules from Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, or Vietnam are not subject to suspension of liquidation or the collection of cash deposits pursuant to these country-wide affirmative determinations of circumvention because the merchandise meets the component content requirements described in the certification (
                    *see*
                     Appendix VI to this notice). The non-cooperative companies listed in Appendix II are not eligible to use the certification described in items (2) or (3) above for the relevant inquiry country.[21] Importers and exporters that claim that: (1) an entry of “Southeast Asian-completed cells and modules” is an “Applicable Entry”; (2) an entry of solar cells or solar modules is not subject to suspension of liquidation or the collection of cash deposits based on the negative circumvention determination with respect to one of the companies listed in Appendix III; or (3) the entry of solar cells or solar modules is not subject to suspension of liquidation or the collection of cash deposits based on the inputs used to manufacture such merchandise, must complete the applicable certification and meet the certification and documentation requirements described below, as well as the requirements identified in the applicable certification. Certification Requirements Importers are required to complete and maintain the applicable importer certification, and maintain a copy of the applicable exporter certification, and retain all supporting documentation for both certifications. For entries of inquiry merchandise more than 14 days after the date of publication of the notice of Commerce's 
                    *Preliminary Determinations*
                     of circumvention in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    , the applicable importer certification must be completed and signed by the time the entry summary is filed for the relevant entry. For entries 
                    ( print page 57423)
                    of inquiry merchandise during the period April 1, 2022, (the date of initiation of these circumvention inquiries) through the 14th day after the date of publication of the notice of Commerce's 
                    *Preliminary Determinations*
                     of circumvention in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    , where the entry has not been liquidated (and entries for which liquidation has not become final), the applicable importer certification should have been completed and signed by no later than 45 days after the date of publication of the notice of Commerce's 
                    *Preliminary Determinations*
                     of circumvention in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    . For entries of inquiry merchandise during the period April 1, 2022, through the 14th day after the date of publication of the notice of Commerce's 
                    *Preliminary Determinations*
                     of circumvention in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    , importers have the option to complete a blanket certification covering multiple entries, individual certifications for each entry, or a combination thereof. The importer, or the importer's agent, must submit both the importer's certification and the exporter's certification to CBP as part of the entry process by uploading them into the document imaging system (DIS) in ACE. Where the importer uses a broker to facilitate the entry process, it should obtain the entry summary number from the broker. Agents of the importer, such as brokers, however, are not permitted to certify on behalf of the importer. Exporters are required to complete and maintain the applicable exporter certification and provide the importer with a copy of that certification and all supporting documentation (
                    *e.g.,*
                     invoice, purchase order, production records,

                    *Preliminary Determinations*
                     of circumvention in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    , exporters have the option to complete a blanket certification covering multiple entries, individual certifications for each entry, or a combination thereof. The exporter certification should be completed by the party selling the solar cells or solar modules to the United States that were manufactured in Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, or Vietnam. Additionally, the claims made in the certifications and any supporting documentation are subject to verification by Commerce and/or CBP. Importers and exporters are required to maintain the certifications and supporting documentation for the later of: (1) the date that is five years after the latest entry date of the entries covered by the certification; or (2) the date that is three years after the conclusion of any litigation in United States courts regarding such entries. For unliquidated entries (and entries for which liquidation has not become final) of solar cells and solar modules that were declared as non-AD/CVD type entries (
                    *e.g.,*
                     type 01) and were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption in the United States during the period April 1, 2022, (the date of initiation of these circumvention inquiries) through the date of publication of the 
                    *Preliminary Determinations*
                     in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    *,*
                     for which none of the above certifications may be made, importers must file a Post Summary Correction with CBP, in accordance with CBP's regulations, regarding conversion of such entries from non-AD/CVD type entries to AD/CVD type entries (
                    *e.g.,*
                     type 01 to type 03). Importers should report those AD/CVD type entries using the following third-country case numbers: Cambodia—A-555-902-000/C-555-903-000; Malaysia—A-557-988-000/C-557-989-000; Thailand—A-549-988-000/C-549-989-000; and Vietnam—A-552-988-000/C-552-989-000. Other third-country case numbers may be established following the process described above. The importer should pay cash deposits on those entries consistent with the regulations governing post summary corrections that require payment of additional duties. If it is determined that an importer and/or exporter has not met the certification and/or related documentation requirements for certain entries, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to suspend, pursuant to these country-wide affirmative determinations of circumvention and the 
                    *Orders,*[22]
                    
                     all unliquidated entries for which these requirements were not met and require the importer to post applicable AD and CVD cash deposits equal to the rates noted above. Administrative Protective Order This notice will serve as the only reminder to all parties subject to an administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility concerning the destruction of proprietary information disclosed under an APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely written notification of return/destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation. Notification to Interested Parties These determinations are issued and published in accordance with section 781(b) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.226(g)(2). Dated: August 17, 2023. Lisa W. Wang, Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
