during the POR, and requesting that 

Commerce rescind this administrative 

review.4 On November 30, 2023, we 

placed on the record the results of a data 

query from U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP) indicating no 

suspended entries during the POR 

attributed to Hoa Phat.5 No interested 

party submitted comments to 

Commerce. 

On December 11, 2023, Commerce 

notified all interested parties of its 

intent to rescind the review in full 

because there were no suspended 

entries by the company subject to this 

review during the POR and invited 

interested parties to comment on 

Commerce’s intent to rescind.6 No 

interested parties commented on the 

Intend to Rescind Memorandum. 

Interested-Party Comment 

In Hoa Phat’s No Shipment Letter, 

Hoa Phat argues that none of the entries 

of LWRPT manufactured by Hoa Phat 

are included in the scope of this 

administrative review because all of the 

hot-rolled steel (HRS) used to produce 

the LWRPT that Hoa Phat exported to 

the United States that entered U.S. 

customs territory on or after August 4, 

2022 was produced in Vietnam, not 

Korea.7 Hoa Phat contends that it 

requested an administrative review here 

so that Commerce could determine 

whether any of Hoa Phat’s exports were, 

in fact, subject to the Order.8 Hoa Phat 

argues that Commerce should find that 

none of the exports by Hoa Phat during 

this period of review were produced 

with HRS from the People’s Republic of 

China (China), Korea, or Taiwan.9 Hoa 

Phat additionally argues that Commerce 

should find that Hoa Phat and its 

customers are entitled to certify the 

origin of the HRS in the LWRPT 

exported to the United States by Hoa 

Phat.10

In LWRPT Circumvention Final, we 

stated that, ‘‘{b}ecause entries of 

LWRPT produced or exported by Hoa 

Phat currently must be entered as 

subject to the cash deposit rates 

established under the LWRPT China 

Orders pursuant to Commerce’s 

{preliminary determination}, Hoa Phat, 

or any other interested party with 

standing to request a review of Hoa 

Phat’s entries may request an 

administrative review of its entries 

under the LWRPT China Orders.’’ 11

Thus, the proper venue for Commerce to 

reconsider Hoa Phat’s certification 

eligibility is in the context of 

administrative reviews of the LWRPT 

China Orders. In fact, Commerce 

initiated an administrative review of 

Hoa Phat in each of the LWRPT China 

Orders.12

Accordingly, we are rescinding this 

review because there are no suspended 

entries during the POR for the company 

for which this review has been initiated. 

Further, pursuant to the LWRPT 

Circumvention Final, no entry of 

LWRPT produced by Hoa Phat in 

Vietnam would be entered subject to the 

LWRPT from Korea Order without the 

completion of administrative reviews 

under the LWRPT China Orders. Hoa 

Phat’s eligibility to certify will be 

determined in the context of the LWRPT 

China Orders administrative reviews. 

Rescission of Review 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), it is 

Commerce’s practice to rescind an 

administrative review of an AD order 

when there are no suspended entries 

during the POR for the companies for 

which the review was initiated.13

Normally, upon completion of an 

administrative review, the suspended 

entries are liquidated at the AD 

assessment rate calculated for the 

POR.14 Therefore, for an administrative 

review to be conducted, there must be 

at least one suspended entry for which 

Commerce can instruct CBP to liquidate 

at the AD assessment rate calculated for 

the POR.15 As noted above, there were 

no suspended entries for the company 

subject to this review during the POR. 

Accordingly, in the absence of 

suspended entries during the POR, we 

are hereby rescinding this 

administrative review, in its entirety, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3). 

Assessment 

Commerce will instruct CBP to assess 

antidumping duties on all appropriate 

entries. Antidumping duties shall be 

assessed at rates equal to the cash 

deposit rate of estimated antidumping 

duties required at the time of entry, or 

withdrawal from warehouse, for 

consumption, in accordance with 19 

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

to issue assessment instructions to CBP 

no earlier than 35 days after the date of 

publication of this rescission notice in 

the Federal Register. 

Notification Regarding Administrative 

Protective Order 

This notice serves as the only 

reminder to parties subject to 

administrative protective order (APO) of 

their responsibility concerning the 

disposition 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 terms of an 

APO is a violation subject to sanction. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

This notice is issued and published in 

accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 

777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
