SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On August 23, 2023, Commerce 

published its final affirmative 

determinations of circumvention of the 

AD and CVD orders on solar cells and 

modules from China.1 In the Final 

Circumvention Determinations, 

Commerce based its decision regarding 

Red Sun 2 on adverse facts available 

(AFA) and, with the exception of the 

‘‘Applicable Entries’’ certification, 

precluded importers and exporters from 

using the certifications that Commerce 

developed in the circumvention inquiry 

with respect to Red Sun’s solar cells and 

modules.3

Following publication of the Final 

Circumvention Determinations, Red Sun 

filed a lawsuit with the U.S. Court of 

International Trade (CIT) challenging 

Commerce’s determination to apply 

AFA to Red Sun and preclude certain 

certifications from being used with 

respect to entries of Red Sun’s solar 

cells and modules. On October 29, 2024, 

the United States and Red Sun entered 

into an agreement to settle and resolve 

all claims raised in Red Sun’s 

complaint. Pursuant to the terms of the 

settlement and the stipulation for entry 

of judgment, Commerce is removing Red 

Sun from the list of companies in 

Appendix II of the Final Circumvention 

Determinations for which parties may 

not file the certifications that are in 

Appendix VI of the Final Circumvention 

Determinations. The CIT issued its order 

of judgment by stipulation on November 

1, 2024.4

Consistent with the settlement 

agreement and the November 1, 2024, 

order of judgment by stipulation, 

Commerce will notify U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) that it has 

removed Red Sun from the list of 

companies for which parties may not 

file the certifications that are in 

Appendix VI of the Final Circumvention 

Determinations. Specifically, Commerce 

will instruct CBP that importers and 

exporters are permitted to use the 

certifications that are in Appendix VI of 

the Final Circumvention Determinations 

with respect to Red Sun’s inquiry 

merchandise that is entered into the 

United States, or withdrawn from 

warehouse, for consumption, on or after 

April 1, 2022, the date of initiation of 

the circumvention inquiry. 

Specifically, for Red Sun’s inquiry 

merchandise that was entered into the 

United States, or withdrawn from 

warehouse, for consumption during the 

period April 1, 2022, through the date 

that is two weeks after publication of 

this notice of amended final 

determinations in the Federal Register, 

where the entry has not been liquidated 

(and entries for which liquidation has 

not become final), importers should 

complete, sign, and date the Appendix 

VI importer certification, if applicable, 

and exporters should complete, sign, 

and date the Appendix VI exporter 

certification, if applicable, and provide 

a copy of the exporter certification to 

the importer, no later than 45 days after 

the date of publication of this notice of 

amended final determinations in the 

Federal Register. Importers and 

exporters each have the option to 

complete an Appendix VI certification 

covering multiple entries, individual 

Appendix VI 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. 

For Red Sun’s inquiry merchandise 

that was entered into the United States, 

or withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption, after the date that is two 

weeks after publication of this notice of 

amended final determinations in the 

Federal Register, the importer should 

complete, sign, and date the Appendix 

VI importer certification, if applicable, 

on, or prior to, the date of the entry 

summary, and the exporter should 

complete, sign, and date the Appendix 

VI exporter certification, if applicable, 

and provide a copy of the exporter 

certification to the importer, on, or prior 

to, the date of shipment. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing, and publishing notice 

of, this amended determination in 

accordance with section 516a(e) of the 

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended.

the Antidumping Duty Orders 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance,

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: As a result of these expedited

Commerce (Commerce) finds that 

revocation of the antidumping duty 

orders on certain hot-rolled carbon steel 

flat products from India, Indonesia, the

of the dumping margins likely to prevail 

are indicated in the ‘‘Final Results of 

Sunset Review’’ section of this notice.
