Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review; 2015–2016 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance,

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: On June 6, 2017, the 

Department of Commerce (the 

Department) published the preliminary 

results of the administrative review of 

the antidumping duty order on certain 

stilbenic optical brightening agents 

(stilbenic OBAs) from Taiwan. The 

period of review (POR) is May 1, 2015, 

through April 30, 2016. For the final 

results of this review, we continue to 

find that subject merchandise has not 

been sold in the United States by Teh 

Fong Ming International Co., Ltd. (TFM) 

at prices below normal value during the 

POR. 

DATES: Effective September 13, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On June 6, 2017, the Department 

published the Preliminary Results of the 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on stilbenic 

OBAs from Taiwan.1 The administrative 

review covers one producer/exporter of 

the subject merchandise, TFM. The 

Department gave interested parties an 

opportunity to comment on the 

Preliminary Results. We received no 

comments. Hence, these final results are 

unchanged from the Preliminary 

Results. 

The Department conducted this 

review in accordance with section 

751(a)(2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (the Act). 

Scope of the Order 

The stilbenic OBAs covered by this 

order are all forms (whether free acid or 

salt) of compounds known as 

triazinylaminostilbenes (i.e., all 

derivatives of 4,4′-bis [1,3,5- triazin-2- 

yl]‘‘ 2 amino-2,2′-stilbenedisulfonic 

acid), except for compounds listed in 

the following paragraph. The stilbenic 

OBAs covered by this order include 

final stilbenic OBA products, as well as 

intermediate products that are 

themselves triazinylaminostilbenes 

produced during the synthesis of 

stilbenic OBA products. 

Excluded from this order are all forms 

of 4,4′-bis[4-anilino-6-morpholino-1,3,5- 

triazin-2-yl] 3 amino-2,2′- 

stilbenedisulfonic acid, 

C40H40N12O8S2 (‘‘Fluorescent 

Brightener 71’’). This order covers the 

above-described compounds in any state 

(including but not limited to powder, 

slurry, or solution), of any 

concentrations of active stilbenic OBA 

ingredient, as well as any compositions 

regardless of additives (i.e., mixtures or 

blends, whether of stilbenic OBAs with 

each other, or of stilbenic OBAs with 

additives that are not stilbenic OBAs), 

and in any type of packaging. 

These stilbenic OBAs are classifiable 

under subheading 3204.20.8000 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS), but they may 

also enter under subheadings 

2933.69.6050, 2921.59.4000 and 

2921.59.8090. Although the HTSUS 

subheadings are provided for 

convenience and customs purposes, the 

written description of the merchandise 

is dispositive. 

Final Results of the Administrative 

Review 

We determine that a weighted-average 

dumping margin of 0.00 percent exists 

for TFM for the period of August 1, 

2015, through July 31, 2016. 

Assessment 

In accordance with section 

751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, 19 CFR

Modification,4 the Department will 

instruct U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP) to liquidate all 

appropriate entries for TFM without 

regard to antidumping duties. 

For entries of subject merchandise 

during the POR produced by TFM for 

which it did not know its merchandise 

was destined for the United States, we 

will instruct CBP to liquidate 

unreviewed entries at the all-others rate 

if there is no rate for the intermediate 

company involved in the transaction. 

We intend to issue instructions to CBP 

15 days after publication of the final 

results of this review. 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

publication of the notice of final results 

of administrative review for all 

shipments of stilbenic OBAs from 

Taiwan entered, or withdrawn from 

warehouse, for consumption on or after 

the date of publication as provided by 

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

cash deposit rate for TFM will be 0.00 

percent, the weighted-average dumping 

margin established in the final results of 

this administrative review; (2) for 

merchandise exported by producers or 

exporters not covered in this 

administrative review but covered in a 

prior segment of the proceeding, the 

cash deposit rate will continue to be the 

company-specific rate published for the 

most recently completed segment of this 

proceeding; (3) if the exporter is not a 

firm covered in this review, a prior 

review, or the original 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 

subject merchandise; and (4) the cash 

deposit rate for all other producers or 

exporters will continue to be 6.19 

percent, the all-others rate established 

in the investigation.5

These cash deposit requirements, 

when imposed, shall remain in effect 

until further notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice serves as a final 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 Secretary’s presumption 

that reimbursement of antidumping 

duties occurred and the subsequent 

assessment of double antidumping 

duties. 

Notification Regarding Administrative 

Protective Orders 

This notice also serves as a reminder 

to parties subject to 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 terms of an 

APO is a violation subject to sanction. 

We are issuing and publishing these 

results of an administrative review in 

accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 

777(i) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.221(b)(5).
