SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

After publishing the antidumping

Ukraine in the Federal Register,1 on 

August 2, 2022, Commerce notified 

interested parties of the opportunity to 

request an administrative review of the 

Order covering the POR.2 On October

seamless pipe, is: Vallourec Star, L.P. 

On April 27, 2023, Commerce extended

Final Results of Review 

Commerce intends to issue the final 

results of this administrative review, 

which will include the results of its 

analysis of issues raised in any briefs, 

within 120 days of publication of these 

preliminary results of review in the 

Federal Register, pursuant to section 

751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, unless extended. 

Assessment Rates 

Upon completion of this 

administrative review, Commerce shall 

determine, and U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, 

antidumping duties on all appropriate 

entries covered by this review.12 If 

Interpipe’s weighted-average dumping 

margin in the final results of this review 

is not zero or de minimis (i.e., greater 

than or equal to 0.5 percent), we will 

calculate importer-specific ad valorem 

assessment rates for the merchandise by 

dividing the total amount of dumping 

calculated for all reviewed sales to the 

importer by the total entered value of 

the merchandise sold to the importer.13

Where either Interpipe’s ad valorem 

weighted-average dumping margin is 

zero or de minimis, or an importerspecific ad valorem assessment rate is 

zero or de minimis in the final results 

of review, we will instruct CBP to 

liquidate the appropriate entries 

without regard to antidumping duties.14

In accordance with Commerce’s 

‘‘automatic assessment’’ practice, we 

will instruct CBP to liquidate POR 

entries of subject merchandise which 

Interpipe produced and sold but did not 

know was destined for the United 

States, at the all-others rate (i.e., 23.75 

percent) 15 if there is no rate for the 

intermediate company(ies) involved in 

the transaction.16

Commerce intends to issue 

assessment instructions to CBP no 

earlier than 35 days after the date of 

publication of the final results of this 

review in the Federal Register. If a 

timely summons is filed at the U.S. 

Court of International Trade, the 

assessment instructions will direct CBP 

not to liquidate relevant entries until the 

time for parties to file a request for a 

statutory injunction has expired (i.e., 

within 90 days of publication). 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be in effect for all 

shipments of subject merchandise 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the date of 

publication of the notice of the final 

results of this administrative review in 

the Federal Register, as provided for by 

section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the 

cash deposit rate for Interpipe will be 

equal to the weighted-average dumping 

margin established for Interpipe in the 

final results of this administrative 

review, except if the rate is less than 

0.50 percent and, therefore, de minimis 

within the meaning of 19 CFR 

351.106(c)(1), then the cash deposit rate 

will be zero; (2) for companies that were 

previously reviewed or investigated in 

this proceeding that are not listed above, 

the cash deposit rate will continue to be 

the rate assigned to the company in the 

most recently completed segment of this 

proceeding in which the company was 

examined; (3) if the exporter of the 

subject merchandise does not have a 

company-specific rate but the producer 

of the subject merchandise does, then 

the cash deposit rate will be the rate 

assigned to the producer of the subject 

merchandise in the most recently 

completed segment of this proceeding in 

which the producer was examined; and 

(4) the cash deposit rate for all other 

producers or exporters will continue to 

be the all-others rate of 23.75 percent 

that was established in the investigation 

in this proceeding.17 These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice also serves as a 

preliminary reminder to importers of 

their responsibility under 19 CFR 

351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding 

the reimbursement of antidumping 

duties prior to liquidation of the 

relevant entries during this review 

period. Failure to comply with this 

requirement could result in Commerce’s 

presumption that reimbursement of 

antidumping duties occurred and the 

subsequent assessment of double 

antidumping duties. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing and publishing these 

preliminary results of review in 

accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 

777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR 

351.213(h)(2) and 351.221(b)(4).
