## Background

                    On April 19, 2018, Commerce published in the                     **Federal Register**                     AD and CVD orders on U.S. imports of aluminum foil from China.[1]                                          On July 18, 2022, pursuant to section 781(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.226(b), Commerce self-initiated country-wide circumvention inquiries to determine whether imports of aluminum foil, completed in Korea and Thailand (collectively, the third countries), using inputs (                    *i.e.,*                     aluminum foil- and sheet-gauge products) manufactured in China, are circumventing the                     *Orders*                     and, accordingly, should be covered by the scope of the                     *Orders.*[2]                                          On March 22,                           ( print page 82825)                        2023, Commerce published in the                     **Federal Register**                     its                     *Preliminary Determinations*                     that imports of certain aluminum foil that were exported from Korea and Thailand using inputs (                    *i.e.,*                     aluminum foil and sheet gauge products) are circumventing the                     *Orders.*[3]                                          On March 28, 2023, Commerce published a correction to the                     *Preliminary Determinations*                     which listed corrected AD and CVD cash deposit rates associated with the                     *Preliminary Determinations.*[4] 

                    On July 12 and September 26, 2023, Commerce extended the deadline for the final determinations of these circumvention inquiries to November 17, 2023.[5]                                          For a summary of events that occurred since the                     *Preliminary Determinations,*                     as well as a full discussion of the issues raised by parties for consideration in these final determinations,                     *see*                     the Issues and Decision Memoranda.[6] 

                    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). A list of issues discussed in the Issues and Decision Memoranda are included as Appendix I to this notice. 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.*

## Scope of the Order

                    The merchandise covered by the                     *Orders*                     is certain aluminum foil. For a full description of the scope of the                     *Orders, see*                     the Issues and Decision Memoranda.                

## Merchandise Subject to the Circumvention Inquiry

These circumvention inquiries cover aluminum foil, assembled or completed in Korea and Thailand using Chinese-origin aluminum foil and/or sheet, that is subsequently exported from Korea and Thailand to the United States (inquiry merchandise).

## Methodology

                    Commerce conducted these circumvention inquiries in accordance with section 781(b) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.226.                     *See Preliminary Determinations*                     Korea PDM and Thailand PDM for a full description of the methodology.[7]                                          We have continued to apply this methodology, without exception, and incorporate by reference this description of the methodology, for our final determinations.                

## Analysis of Comments Received

                    All issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs by parties in these inquiries are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memoranda. Based on our analysis of the comments received from interested parties, we made no changes to the                     *Preliminary Determinations,*                     except for revisions to the certification language (                    *see*                     Appendix II), which we have modified in response to comments to allow parties to also use the certifications when their third-country shipments of certain aluminum foil reflect prevailing aluminum cash deposit rates.                

## Final Circumvention Determinations

                    We determine that aluminum foil, assembled or completed in Korea and Thailand by the entities identified in Appendix II to this notice, using Chinese-origin aluminum foil and/or sheet, that is subsequently exported from Korea or Thailand to the United States, is circumventing the                     *Orders.*                     For a detailed explanation of our determinations with respect to the entities identified in Appendix II,                     *see*                     the Preliminary Decision Memoranda and the “Use of Adverse Facts Available” section of this notice, below.[8] 

                    We also determine that U.S imports of inquiry merchandise exported from Korea and Thailand are circumventing the                     *Orders*                     on a country-wide basis. As a result, in accordance with section 781(b) of the Act, we determine that this merchandise is covered by the                     *Orders.*

*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” sections below for details regarding the use of certifications.                

## Use of Adverse Facts Available

                    Within the context of the Thailand inquiry, Commerce continues to find that necessary information is not available on the record with respect to Sankyu Thai Co., Ltd. (Sankyu) within the meaning of section 776(a)(1) of the Act, and that Sankyu withheld requested information, failed to provide requested information by the deadline or in the form or manner requested, and significantly impeded these inquiries pursuant to sections 776(a)(1), (A), (B), and (C) of the Act. Moreover, Commerce continues to find that Sankyu failed to cooperate by not acting to the best of its ability to provide requested information pursuant to section 776(b)(1) of the Act. Consequently, we have continued to use adverse inferences with respect to Sankyu in selecting from among the facts otherwise available on the record, pursuant to sections 776(a) and (b) of the Act, for the reasons discussed in the                     *Preliminary Determinations.*[9] 

                    Based on the adverse facts available used, we determine that Sankyu exported inquiry merchandise and that U.S. entries of that merchandise are circumventing the                     *Orders.*                     Additionally, we are precluding Sankyu from participating in the certification programs that we are establishing for exports of aluminum foil from Thailand. U.S. entries of inquiry merchandise made on or after July 18, 2022, that are ineligible for certification based on the failure of Sankyu 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. Interested parties that wish to have their                           ( print page 82826)                        suspended entries, if any, reviewed, and their ineligibility for the certification program reevaluated, should request an administrative review of the relevant suspended entries during the anniversary month of these                     *Orders.*[10] 

## Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposit Requirements

                    Based on the affirmative country-wide determination of circumvention for Korea and Thailand, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.226(l)(3), Commerce will direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to suspend liquidation and require a cash deposit of estimated duties on unliquidated entries of entries of aluminum foil, assembled or completed in Korea and Thailand using Chinese-origin aluminum foil and/or sheet, for consumption on or after July 18, 2022, the date of publication of the initiation of these circumvention inquiries in the                     **Federal Register**                    .                

                    For exporters of aluminum foil 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 aluminum foil proceedings. For exporters of aluminum foil 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 that exported the aluminum foil and/or sheet to the producer/exporter in Korea or Thailand that was incorporated in the imported aluminum foil. If neither the exporter of the aluminum foil from Korea or Thailand, nor the Chinese exporter of the aluminum foil and/or sheet, has a company-specific cash deposit rate, the AD cash deposit rate will be the China-wide rate (                    *i.e.,*                     95.15 percent), and the CVD cash deposit rate will be the all-others rate (                    *i.e.,*                     13.28 percent).[11]                                          Commerce has established the following third-country case numbers in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) for such entries: Korea—A-580-053/C-580-054; Thailand—A-549-053/C-549-054. The suspension of liquidation will remain in effect until further notice.                

### Certified Entries

Entries for which the importer and exporter have met the certification requirements described below and in Appendix III to this notice will not be subject to suspension of liquidation, or the cash deposit requirements described above. Failure to comply with the applicable certification requirements may result in the merchandise being subject to antidumping and countervailing duties.

### Certifications

                    To administer the country-wide affirmative determinations of circumvention for Korea and Thailand, Commerce established importer and exporter certifications which will permit importers and exporters to establish that specific entries of aluminum foil from Korea or Thailand are not subject to suspension of liquidation or the collection of cash deposits pursuant to these affirmative determinations of circumvention because the merchandise meets the requirements described in the certification (                    *see*                     Appendix III to this notice). Because Sankyu was non-cooperative, it is not eligible to use the certification described above.[12] 

Importers and exporters that claim that the entry of aluminum foil 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 for Korea and Thailand

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. With the exception of the entries described below, the importer certification must be completed, signed, and dated by the time the entry summary is filed for the relevant entry. 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, the importer should obtain the entry summary number from the broker. Agents of the importer, such as a broker, 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,                     *etc.*). With the exception of the entries described below, the exporter certification must be completed, signed, and dated by the time of shipment of the relevant entries. The exporter certification should be completed by the party selling the aluminum foil that was manufactured in Korea or Thailand to the United States.                

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 until 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 aluminum foil that were declared as non-AD type entries (                    *e.g.,*                     type 01) and entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption in the United States during the period July 18, 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 type entries to AD type entries (                    *e.g.,*                     type 01 to type 03). Importers should report those AD type entries using the third country case numbers identified in the “Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposit Requirements” section, above. The importer should post cash deposits on those entries consistent with the regulations governing post summary corrections that require payment of additional duties, including antidumping and countervailing 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 this                           ( print page 82827)                        country-wide affirmative determination of circumvention and the                     *Orders,*[13]                                          all unliquidated entries for which these requirements were not met and require the importer to post applicable cash deposits equal to the rates noted above.                

## Opportunity To Request an Administrative Review

                    Each year during the anniversary month of the publication of an AD or CVD order, finding, or suspended investigation, an interested party, as defined in section 771(9) of the Act, may request, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213, that Commerce conduct an administrative review of that AD or CVD order, finding, or suspended investigation. An interested party who would like Commerce to conduct an administrative review should wait until Commerce announces via the                     **Federal Register**                     the next window during the anniversary month of the publication of the                     *Orders*                     to submit such requests. The anniversary month for these                     *Orders*                     is April.                

## 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 APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely written notification of the return or 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

This determination is issued and published in accordance with section 781(b) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.226(g)(2).

Dated: November 17, 2023.
