Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp 

From the Socialist Republic of 

Vietnam: Preliminary Results, Partial 

Rescission, and Preliminary 

Determination of No Shipments of 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review; 2022–2023 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) preliminarily 

determines that no companies under 

review qualify for a separate rate and 

that these companies are, therefore, 

considered part of the Socialist Republic 

of Vietnam (Vietnam)-wide entity. 

Additionally, Commerce is partially 

rescinding this review with respect to 

companies for which all review requests 

were timely withdrawn. Further, 

Commerce preliminary determines that 

certain companies had no shipments of 

subject merchandise during the period 

of review (POR), February 1, 2022, 

through January 31, 2023. Interested 

parties are invited to comment on these 

preliminary results. 

DATES: Applicable November 3, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On February 2, 2023, Commerce 

published a notice of opportunity to 

request an administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on certain 

frozen warmwater shrimp from the 

Vietnam.1 Commerce received timely 

requests for an administrative review 

from AHSTAC (the petitioner),2 ASPA 

(domestic processors),3 and numerous 

Vietnamese companies. On April 11, 

2023, Commerce published in the 

Federal Register a notice of initiation of 

an administrative review of the Order 

for the period February 1, 2022, through 

January 31, 2023, covering 187 

companies including multiple 

companies with name variations/ 

abbreviations in accordance with 

section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, 

as amended (the Act) and 19 CFR 

351.221(c)(1)(i).4

On May 16 and 17, 2023, the 

petitioner filed timely withdrawals of its 

review requests of 41 companies.5 On 

May 17, 2023, ASPA filed timely 

withdrawals of its review requests of 35 

companies.6 On May 16, 2023, Ngoc Tri

Continued 

or exporters, including Viet I-Mei 

Frozen Foods Co., Ltd. (Viet I-Mei), 

withdrew their review requests of 

themselves.7 On May 25, 2023, Kim 

Anh Company and QNL One Member 

Company timely withdrew their review 

requests of themselves.8 Therefore, 

Commerce is rescinding its review with 

respect to the 66 companies for which 

all review requests were withdrawn, 

listed in Appendix II of this notice, as 

discussed below. 

Respondent Selection 

On April 27, 2023, only one company, 

Viet I-Mei, filed a timely separate rate 

certification.9 On May 3, 2023, 

Commerce released U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) entry data in 

order to select respondents for 

individual examination.10 We received 

comments regarding respondent 

selection from the petitioner on May 10, 

2023.11 However, Commerce did not 

select any mandatory respondents for 

individual examination because the sole 

company which timely filed a separate 

rate application and/or certification and 

was, therefore, eligible for individual 

examination (i.e., Viet I-Mei) had no 

remaining review requests on the 

record, as discussed below. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise subject to the Order 

is certain frozen warmwater shrimp. 

The product is currently classified 

under the following Harmonized Tariff 

Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) 

item subheadings: 0306.17.0004, 

0306.17.0005, 0306.17.0007, 

0306.17.0008, 0306.17.0010,

0306.17.0026, 0306.17.0028, 

0306.17.0029, 0306.17.0041, 

0306.17.0042, 1605.21.10.30, and 

1605.29.10.10. Although the HTSUS 

subheadings are provided for 

convenience and for customs purposes, 

the written product description, 

provided in Appendix I, remains 

dispositive. 

Partial Rescission of Review 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), 

Commerce will rescind an 

administrative review, in whole or in 

part, if the party that requested the 

review withdraws its request within 90 

days of the publication of the notice of 

initiation of the requested review. 

Because all requests for administrative 

review of the 66 companies listed in 

Appendix II were withdrawn by 

interested parties within 90 days of the 

date of publication of the Initiation 

Notice, and no other interested party 

requested a review of them, Commerce 

is rescinding this review with respect to 

these companies and their name 

variations/abbreviations, in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). Commerce 

will instruct CBP to assess antidumping 

duties on all appropriate entries at a rate 

equal to the cash deposit of estimated 

antidumping duties required at the time 

of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, 

for consumption, during the period 

February 1, 2022, through January 31, 

2023, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends to 

issue appropriate assessment 

instructions to CBP 35 days after the 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register. The administrative review 

remains active with respect to 121 

companies. 

Preliminary Determination of No 

Shipments 

Commerce received timely noshipment certifications from four 

companies: Bien Dong Seafood Co., Ltd.; 

Vinh Hoan Corp.; Seavina Joint Stock 

Company; and BIM Foods Joint Stock 

Company.12 To confirm these 

companies’ no-shipment claims, 

Commerce issued a no-shipment inquiry 

to CBP and received no contradictory 

information.13 Therefore, we 

preliminarily determine that these four 

companies did not have any shipments 

of subject merchandise during the POR. 

Consistent with Commerce’s practice, 

we will not rescind the review with 

respect to these companies, but, rather, 

will complete the review and issue 

instructions based on the final results.14

Vietnam-Wide Entity 

Commerce finds that 117 companies 

(see Appendix III) under review have 

not established eligibility for a separate 

rate and are considered to be part of the 

Vietnam-wide entity for these 

preliminary results. Commerce’s policy 

regarding conditional review of the 

Vietnam-wide entity applies to this 

administrative review.15 Under this 

policy, the Vietnam-wide entity will not 

be under review unless a party 

specifically requests, or Commerce selfinitiates, a review of the entity. Because 

no party requested a review of the 

Vietnam-wide entity, the entity is not 

under review and the entity’s rate of 

25.76 percent is not subject to change. 

Preliminary Results of Review 

Commerce finds that because no 

company still under review submitted a 

timely separate rate application or 

separate rate certification, no company 

still under review has established 

eligibility for a separate rate. Based on 

the above information, Commerce has 

not calculated any dumping margins for 

any companies under review, nor has 

Commerce granted separate rates to any 

companies under review. Additionally, 

as discussed above, Commerce has 

preliminarily determined that the 117 

companies that remain under review but 

which did not submit no-shipment 

certifications are subject to the Vietnamwide entity rate of 25.76 percent (see 

Appendix III). 

Disclosure and Public Comment 

Normally, Commerce will disclose the 

calculations used in its analysis to 

parties in this review within five days 

of the date of publication of the notice 

of preliminary results in the Federal 

Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.224(b). However, here Commerce 

only applied the Vietnam-wide rate, 

which was established in the underlying 

investigation,16 to the 117 companies

Interested parties may submit case 

briefs no later than 30 days after the 

date of publication of this notice.17

Rebuttal briefs, the content of which is 

limited to the issues raised in the case 

briefs, must be filed within five days 

from the deadline date for the 

submission of case briefs.18 Parties who 

submit case or rebuttal briefs in this 

proceeding are requested to submit with 

each argument: (1) a statement of the 

issue; (2) a brief summary of the 

argument; and (3) a table of 

authorities.19 Case and rebuttal briefs 

should be filed 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. Note that Commerce 

has amended certain of its requirements 

pertaining to the service of documents 

in 19 CFR 351.303(f).20

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), 

interested parties who wish to request a 

hearing must submit a written request to 

the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement 

and Compliance, filed electronically via 

ACCESS. An electronically-filed 

document must be received successfully 

in its entirety by ACCESS by 5 p.m. 

Eastern Time within 30 days after the 

date of publication of this notice.21

Hearing requests should contain the 

following information: (1) the party’s 

name, address, and telephone number; 

(2) the number of participants; (3) 

whether any participant is a foreign 

national; and (4) a list of issues to be 

discussed. Issues raised in the hearing 

will be limited to issues raised in the 

briefs. If a request for a hearing is made, 

Commerce intends to hold the hearing 

at a time and date to be determined.22

Assessment Rates 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), 

Commerce will determine, and CBP 

shall assess, antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries of subject 

merchandise covered by this review. For 

the companies in which Commerce is 

rescinding this administrative review, 

Commerce intends to issue assessment 

instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 

days after the date of publication of this 

notice in the Federal Register. For the 

remaining companies under review, 

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). 

If we continue to find in the final 

results no shipments for the companies 

identified in the ‘‘Preliminary 

Determination of No Shipments’’ 

section above, Commerce will instruct 

CBP to liquidate any suspended entries 

of subject merchandise that entered 

under those companies’ case numbers at 

the Vietnam-wide rate.23

For the final results, if we continue to 

treat the 117 companies identified in 

Appendix III as part of the Vietnamwide entity, we will instruct CBP to 

apply an ad valorem assessment rate of 

25.76 percent to all entries of subject 

merchandise during the POR which 

were produced and/or exported by those 

companies. The final results of this 

review shall be the basis for the 

assessment of antidumping duties on 

entries of merchandise covered by the 

final results of this review and for future 

deposits of estimated duties, where 

applicable. 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

publication of the final results of this 

administrative review for shipments of 

the subject merchandise from Vietnam 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the 

publication date, as provided by 

sections 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) for 

all Vietnam exporters of subject 

merchandise that have not been found 

to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash 

deposit rate will be the existing rate for 

the Vietnam-wide entity of 25.76 

percent; and (2) for all non-Vietnam 

exporters of subject merchandise which 

have not received their own rate, the 

cash deposit rate will be the rate 

applicable to the Vietnam exporter that 

supplied that non-Vietnam exporter. 

These cash deposit requirements, when 

imposed, shall remain in effect until 

further notice. 

Final Results of Review 

Unless otherwise extended, 

Commerce intends to issue the final 

results of this administrative review, 

including the results of its analysis of 

issues raised by the parties in the 

written comments, within 120 days of 

publication of these preliminary results 

in the Federal Register, pursuant to 

section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 

CFR 351.213(h)(1). 

Notification to Importers 

This notice also serves as a 

preliminary reminder to importers of 

their responsibility under 19 CFR 

351.402(f)(2) 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. This 

determination is issued and published 

in accordance with sections 751(a)(1)(B) 

and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.221(b)(4). 

Notification to Interested Parties 

These preliminary results are issued 

and published in accordance with 

sections 751(a)(1)(B) and 777(i)(1) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4). 

Dated: October 30, 2023.

Appendix I—Scope of the Order 

The scope of the Order includes certain 

frozen warmwater shrimp and prawns, 

whether wild-caught (ocean harvested) or 

farm-raised (produced by aquaculture), headon or head-off, shell-on or peeled, tail-on or 

tail-off,24 deveined or not deveined, cooked 

or raw, or otherwise processed in frozen

Tariff Schedule of the United States 

(HTSUS), are products which are processed 

from warmwater shrimp and prawns through 

freezing and which are sold in any countsize. 

The products described above may be 

processed from any species of warmwater 

shrimp and prawns. Warmwater shrimp and 

prawns are generally classified in, but are not 

limited to, the Penaeidae family. Some 

examples of the farmed and wild-caught 

warmwater species include, but are not

that Camimex Group Joint Stock Company is the 

successor-in-interest to Camau Frozen Seafood
