This rate was published in the final results applicable December 19, 2025 and names Zhejiang Dingli and its listed affiliates as subject to that rate.
Immediate Cash Deposit Collection
Commerce intends to instruct CBP to collect cash deposits of estimated countervailing duties for the listed companies on shipments entered or withdrawn for consumption on or after the date of publication (December 19, 2025). These cash deposit requirements are effective upon publication and will remain in effect until further notice; for non-reviewed firms, CBP will continue to collect the most recent company-specific or all-others rate as appropriate.
Assessment Instructions and Liquidation Timing
Commerce will direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess countervailing duties on appropriate entries in accordance with these final results; Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions no earlier than 35 days after publication.
