Analyzed Economic Effects
5 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 5 costs, 0 mixed.
Crown Assigned China‑Wide 77.57% Rate
Commerce determined that Crown Polyethylene Products (International) Ltd. is not eligible for a separate rate and is part of the China-wide entity. Any suspended entries associated with Crown will be assessed antidumping duties at the China-wide rate of 77.57 percent.
Cash Deposit Rules Effective on Publication
Cash deposit requirements apply for shipments entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date. Chinese exporters without a separate rate will have a cash deposit rate equal to the China-wide rate of 77.57 percent; previously reviewed exporters with separate rates keep their existing cash deposit rates; and non‑Chinese exporters without their own rate must post the rate of the Chinese exporter that supplied them.
Assessment Instructions and Timing to CBP
Commerce will direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review. Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the Federal Register publication date, and if a timely summons is filed, CBP will be instructed not to liquidate relevant entries until the 90-day statutory injunction period has expired.
Importer Reimbursement Certificate Requirement
Importers must file a certificate about whether antidumping duties were reimbursed prior to liquidation of the relevant entries under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2). If importers fail to file this certificate, Commerce may presume reimbursement occurred and assess double antidumping duties.
APO Return/Destruction Obligations and Sanctions
Parties subject to an Administrative Protective Order (APO) must return or destroy proprietary information disclosed under the APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305, or convert to a judicial protective order. Failure to comply is a violation that may lead to sanctions.
