Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results, the
Department shall determine, and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review.8
We calculated importer-specific ad
valorem duty assessment rates based on
the ratio of the total amount of
antidumping duties calculated for the
examined sales to the total entered
value of the examined sales to that
importer. We will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review when the
importer-specific assessment rate

either the exporter’s weighted-average

CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.9
We intend to issue instructions to
CBP 41 days after the publication date

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entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,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
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1)
The cash deposit rate for Electrolux will
be the rate established in the final
results of this 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 rate will be zero; (2) for
previously reviewed or investigated
companies not participating in this
review, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the company-specific rate
published for the most recent period; (3)
if the exporter is not a firm covered in
this review, a prior review, or the
original investigation, but the
manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate
will be the rate established for the most
recent period for the manufacturer of
the merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers
or exporters will continue to be 11.80
percent, the all-others rate established
in the less-than-fair-value
investigation.10 These 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 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

The Department intends to issue the final results of this

raised in any written briefs, not later than 120 days after the date of
publication of this notice, unless the deadline is extended.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ See section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results, the Department shall determine,
and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We calculated importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates
based on the ratio of the total amount of antidumping duties calculated
for the examined sales to the total entered value of the examined sales
to that importer. 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 above de minimis. Where either the exporter's weighted-average
dumping margin is zero or de minimis, or the importer-specific
assessment rate is zero or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping
duties.\9\

Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping
Duty Proceedings; Final Modification, 77 FR 8101, 8103 (February 14,
2012); 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We intend to issue instructions to CBP 41 days after the
publication date of the final results of this review.
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 by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for Electrolux will
be the rate established in the final results of this 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
rate will be zero; (2) for previously reviewed or investigated
companies not participating in this review, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most recent
period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a
prior review, or the original investigation, but the manufacturer is,
the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recent
period for the manufacturer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers or exporters will continue to
be 11.80 percent, the all-others rate established in the less-than-
fair-value investigation.\10\ These 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 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
[[Page 12875]]
occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.
We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).
Dated: March 4, 2016.
Paul Piquado,
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
