SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On April 21, 2020, the Department of Commerce published in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     the antidumping duty (AD) order on wooden cabinets and vanities and components thereof from the People's Republic of China (China).[1]
                    
                     On April 1, 2021, Commerce published in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review of the 
                    *Order.*[2]
                    
                     On June 11, 2021, based on timely requests for an administrative review, Commerce initiated the administrative review of the 
                    *Order.*[3]
                    
                     The administrative review covers 66 companies, including three mandatory respondents, Beautystar, Qufu Xinyu, and Rongxin Cabinets.[4] Scope of the Order The products covered by this 
                    *Order*
                     are wooden cabinets and vanities that are for permanent installation (including floor mounted, wall mounted, ceiling hung or by attachment of plumbing), and wooden components thereof. A full description of the scope of the 
                    *Order*
                     is provided in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.[5] Rescission of Review in Part Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party that requested a review withdraws its request within 90 days of the date of publication of the notice of initiation. The requests for an administrative review of the 40 companies listed in Appendix II to this notice were withdrawn within 90 days of the date of publication of the Initiation Notice.[6]
                    
                     As a result, Commerce is rescinding this review with respect to these companies, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). Separate Rates Commerce preliminarily determines that 15 companies, not individually examined, are eligible for separate rates in this administrative review.[7]
                    
                     The Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act) and Commerce's regulations do not address the establishment of a separate rate to be applied to companies not selected for individual examination when Commerce limits its examination in an administrative review pursuant to section 777A(c)(2) of the Act. Generally, Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of the Act, which provides instructions for calculating the all-others rate in an investigation, for guidance when calculating the rate for separate-rate respondents which Commerce did not examine individually in an administrative review. For the preliminary results of this review, Commerce has determined the estimated dumping margin for Qufu Xinyu to be zero. For the reasons explained in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum, we are assigning this rate to the non-examined respondents which qualify for a separate rate in this review. China-Wide Entity Under Commerce's policy regarding the conditional review of the China-wide entity,[8]
                    
                     the China-wide entity will not be under review unless a party specifically requests, or Commerce self-initiates, a review of the entity. Because no party requested a review of the China-wide entity in this review, the entity is not under review, and the entity's rate (
                    *i.e.,*
                     251.64 percent) is not subject to change.[9]
                    
                     Commerce considers all other companies for which a review was requested (none of which filed a separate rate application) listed in Appendix II to this notice, to be part of the China-wide entity.[10]
                    
                     We find mandatory respondent Beautystar to be a part of the China-wide entity in the instant review because it withdrew from participation and failed to submit a response to the initial AD questionnaire, thereby failing to establish its eligibility for a separate rate.[11] Methodology Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(B) of the Act. For a full description of the 
                    ( print page 27092)
                    methodology underlying our conclusions, 
                    *see*
                     the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. The Preliminary Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file 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.*
                     A list of topics discussed in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is included as an appendix to this notice. In addition, a complete version of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum can be found at 
                    *https://access.trade.gov/​public/​FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.* Preliminary Rescission of the Administrative Review As discussed in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum and as expounded upon in the 
                    *Bona Fides*
                     Memorandum, Commerce preliminarily finds that the sale made by Dalian Hualing Wood Co., Ltd. (Hualing) serving as the basis for administrative review is not a 
                    *bona fide*
                     sale of cabinets.[12]
                    
                     Commerce reached this conclusion based on the totality of the record information surrounding Hualing's reported sale, including, but not limited to, the price and quantity of the sale, the timing of the sale, the resale price and profit, and other relevant factors such as the single sale made during the POR, the “specialty” nature of the product, and the likelihood of future sales.[13] Because the non-
                    *bona fide*
                     sale was the only reported sale of subject merchandise during the POR, we preliminarily find that Hauling had no reviewable transactions during this POR and is ineligible for an administrative review. Accordingly, we intend to rescind this administrative review with respect to Hualing if our determination remains the same in the final results of this administrative review.[14] Regarding Rongxin Cabinets, as discussed in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum, we preliminarily find that Rongxin Wood, is the successor-in-interest to Rongxin Cabinets. Consequently, we are preliminarily rescinding the review with respect to Rongxin Cabinets based on Rongxin Wood's timely withdrawal of its review request and because there are no other outstanding requests for review of Rongxin Cabinets or Rongxin Wood. For the complete successor-in-interest analysis, 
                    *see*
                     the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. Should the final results of review remain the same as these preliminary results of review, we intend to rescind the review of Rongxin Cabinets and in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). Additionally, effective the date of publication of the final results of review, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to apply the AD cash deposit rate applicable to Rongxin Cabinets to entries of subject merchandise exported by Rongxin Wood. Preliminary Results of the Administrative Review Commerce preliminarily determines that the following weighted-average dumping margin exists for the administrative review covering the period October 9, 2019, through March 31, 2021: Exporter

 Disclosure Commerce intends
                    
                     to disclose to parties to the proceeding the calculations performed for these preliminary results of review within five days of the date of publication of this notice in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). Public Comment Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c), interested parties may submit case briefs no later than 30 days after the date of publication of this notice. Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues raised in the case briefs, may be filed not later than seven days after the date for filing case briefs.[16]
                    
                     Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(d)(2), rebuttal briefs must be limited to issues raised in the case briefs.[17]
                    
                     Commerce modified certain of its requirements for serving documents containing business proprietary information until further notice.[18]
                    
                     Parties who submit case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this proceeding are encouraged 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] Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), interested parties who wish to request a hearing, limited to issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs, must submit a written request to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, U.S. Department of Commerce, within 30 days after the publication of this notice. Requests should contain the party's name, address, telephone number, the number of participants, whether any participant is a foreign national, and a list of the issues to be discussed. If a request for a hearing is made, Commerce intends to hold the hearing at a time and date to be determined. Parties should confirm by telephone the date, time, and location of the hearing two days before the scheduled date. Unless the deadline is extended, Commerce intends to issue the final results of this review, including the results of its analysis of the issues raised in any written briefs, no later than 120 days after the date of publication of this notice, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h). Assessment Rates Upon issuing the final results, Commerce will determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review.[20]
                    
                     If the preliminary results are 
                    ( print page 27093)
                    unchanged for the final results, we will instruct CBP to apply an 
                    *ad valorem*
                     assessment rate of 251.64 percent to all entries of subject merchandise during the POR which were exported by the companies considered to be a part of the China-wide entity listed in Appendix II of this notice. If Commerce determines that an exporter under review had no shipments of the subject merchandise, any suspended entries that entered under that exporter's case number (
                    *i.e.,*
                     at that exporter's rate) will be liquidated at the China-wide rate.[21] 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). Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon publication of the final results of this review for shipments of the subject merchandise from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For the subject merchandise exported by the company listed above that has a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin established in the final results of this administrative review (except, if the rate is zero or 
                    *de minimis,*
                     then zero cash deposit will be required); (2) for previously investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese exporters not listed above 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 that for the China-wide entity; and (4) for all non-Chinese exporters of subject merchandise which 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 deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. Notification to Importers This notice 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 these PORs. 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. Notification to Interested Parties Commerce is issuing and publishing the preliminary results of this review in accordance with sections 751(a)(1)(B), 751(a)(3) and 777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213 and 351.221(b)(4).
