Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective for all 

shipments of the subject merchandise 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the 

publication date of the final results of 

this administrative review, as provided 

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

Wah Yuen’s cash deposit rate will 

continue to be its existing exporterspecific rate; 11 (2) for previously 

investigated or reviewed Chinese and 

non-Chinese exporters for which a 

review was not requested and that 

received a separate rate in a prior 

segment of this proceeding, the cash 

deposit rate will continue to be the 

existing exporter-specific rate; (3) for all 

Chinese exporters of subject 

merchandise that have not been found 

to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash 

deposit rate will be the rate for the 

China-wide entity; and (4) for all nonChinese exporters of subject 

merchandise that have not received 

their own rate, the cash deposit rate will 

be the rate applicable to the Chinese 

exporter that supplied that non-Chinese 

exporter. 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 AD 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 AD duties occurred 

and the subsequent assessment of 

double AD duties. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing and publishing the 

preliminary results of this 

administrative review in accordance 

with sections 751(a)(l) and 777(i)(l) of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On August 5, 2008, Commerce 

published the Order in the Federal 

Register.1 On October 6, 2020, 

Commerce published in the Federal 

Register a notice of initiation listing the 

firms for which timely requests were 

submitted for an administrative review 

of 18 companies.2 On December 3, 2020, 

we selected Perfiles and Regiopytsa for 

individual examination as the 

mandatory respondents in this 

administrative review.3 On January 19, 

2021, we rescinded the review for 12 

companies included in the Initiation 

Notice.4 On April 13, 2021, we extended 

the deadline for the preliminary results 

to August 31, 2021.5

For a complete description of the 

events that followed the initiation of the 

review, see the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum.6 The Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum is a public

accordance with section 772 of the Act. 

Normal value was calculated in

methodology underlying our 

conclusions, see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum. 

Rate for Non-Selected Companies 

For the rate for companies not 

selected for individual examination in 

an administrative review, generally, 

Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of 

the Act, which provides instructions for 

calculating the all-others rate in a lessthan-fair-value (LTFV) investigation. 

Under section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, 

the all-others rate is normally ‘‘an 

amount equal to the weighted average of 

the estimated weighted-average 

dumping margins established for 

exporters and producers individually 

investigated, excluding any zero or de 

minimis margins, and any margins 

determined entirely {on the basis of 

facts available}.’’ In this administrative 

review, we calculated a weightedaverage dumping margin each for 

Perfiles and Regiopytsa that is not zero, 

de minimis, or based on total facts 

available. The weighted-average 

dumping margin calculated for the nonselected companies is an average of the 

weighted-average dumping margins of 

the two mandatory respondents 

weighted by the publicly ranged U.S. 

sales values of the mandatory 

respondents.7

Preliminary Results of Review 

We preliminarily determine that, for 

the period August 1, 2019, through July 

31, 2020, the following weightedaverage dumping margins exist:

dumping

Final Results of Review 

Unless extended, we intend to issue 

the final results of this administrative 

review, which will include the results of 

our analysis of all issues raised in the 

case and rebuttal briefs, within 120 days 

of publication of these preliminary 

results in the Federal Register, pursuant 

to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. 

Assessment Rates 

Upon completion of the 

administrative review, pursuant to 

section 751(a)(2)(A) of the Act, 

Commerce shall determine, and U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

shall assess, antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries of subject 

merchandise in accordance with the 

final results of this review. 

For individually examined 

respondents whose calculated weightedaverage dumping margin is not zero or 

de minimis (i.e., less than 0.50 percent), 

we will calculate importer-specific ad 

valorem duty assessment rates based on

the ratio of the total amount of dumping 

calculated for the importer’s examined 

sales to the total entered value of those 

same sales in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.212(b)(1). We will instruct CBP to 

assess antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries covered by this 

review when the importer-specific 

assessment rate calculated in the final 

results of this review is not zero or de 

minimis. If a respondent’s weightedaverage dumping margin is zero or de 

minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 

351.106(c)(1), or an importer-specific 

assessment rate is zero or de minimis, 

we will instruct CBP to liquidate the 

appropriate entries without regard to 

antidumping duties. The final results of 

this review shall be the basis for the 

assessment of antidumping duties on 

entries of merchandise covered by this 

review where applicable. 

Regarding entries of subject 

merchandise during the period of 

review that were produced by Perfiles 

and Regiopytsa and for which they did 

not know that the merchandise was 

destined for the United States, we will 

instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at 

the all-others rate of 3.76 percent, as 

established in the LTFV investigation, if 

there is no rate for the intermediate 

company(ies) involved in the 

transaction.17 For a full discussion of 

this matter, see Assessment Policy 

Notice.18

For those companies which were not 

individually examined, we will instruct 

CBP to assess antidumping duties at an 

ad valorem rate equal to each 

company’s weighted-average dumping 

margin as determined in the final results 

of this review. 

Commerce intends to issue 

assessment instructions to CBP no 

earlier than 41 days after the date of 

publication of the final results of this 

review in the Federal Register, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 356.8(a). The 

final results of this review shall be the 

basis for the assessment of antidumping 

duties on entries of merchandise 

covered by this review where 

applicable. 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following deposit requirements 

will be effective for all shipments of the 

subject merchandise entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after the publication 

date of the final results of this 

administrative review, as provided by 

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

cash deposit rate for each specific 

company listed above will be equal to 

the weighted-average dumping margin 

established 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), in which case the 

cash deposit rates will be zero; (2) for 

companies not participating in this 

review, the cash deposit rate will 

continue to be the company-specific rate 

published for the most recently 

completed segment of this proceeding in 

which the producer or exporter 

participated; (3) if the exporter is not a 

firm covered in this review, a prior 

review, or the original LTFV 

investigation but the producer is, the 

cash deposit rate will be the rate 

established for the most recently 

completed segment of this proceeding 

for the producer of the merchandise; 

and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other 

producers or exporters will continue to 

be the all-others rate of 3.76 percent.19

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)(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 the 

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 this 

notice in accordance with sections 

751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 

CFR 351.221(b)(4).
