(Commerce) and the International Trade

antidumping duty order on certain
polyester staple fiber (PSF) from the
People’s Republic of China (China)
would likely lead to a continuation or
recurrence of dumping and material

of continuation of the antidumping duty

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On June 1, 2007, Commerce published
in the Federal Register notice of the
antidumping duty order on PSF from
China.1 On September 6, 2017,
Commerce initiated the second five-year
(sunset) review of the antidumping duty
order on PSF from China, pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (the Act).2
Commerce conducted this sunset
review on an expedited basis, pursuant
to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), because it
received a complete, timely, and
adequate response from a domestic
interested party but no substantive
responses from respondent interested
parties. As a result of its review,
Commerce determined that revocation
of the antidumping duty order would
likely lead to a continuation or
recurrence of dumping.3 Commerce,
therefore, notified the ITC of the
magnitude of the margins likely to
prevail should the antidumping duty
order be revoked. On March 15, 2018,
the ITC published notice of its
determination, pursuant to section
751(c) of the Act, that revocation of the
antidumping duty order on PSF from
China would likely lead to a
continuation or recurrence of material
injury to an industry in the United

Scope of the Order
The merchandise subject to the order
is synthetic staple fibers, not carded,
combed or otherwise processed for
spinning, of polyesters measuring 3.3
decitex (3 denier, inclusive) or more in
diameter. This merchandise is cut to
lengths varying from one inch (25 mm)
to five inches (127 mm). The subject
merchandise may be coated, usually
with a silicon or other finish, or not
coated. Polyester staple fiber is
generally used as stuffing in sleeping
bags, mattresses, ski jackets, comforters,
cushions, pillows, and furniture.
The following products are excluded
from the scope of the order: (1) Polyester
staple fiber of less than 3.3 decitex (less
than 3 denier) currently classifiable in
the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS) at 5503.20.0025
and known to the industry as polyester
staple fiber for spinning and generally
used in woven and knit applications to
produce textile and apparel products;
(2) polyester staple fiber of 10 to 18
denier that are cut to lengths of 6 to 8
inches and that are generally used in the
manufacture of carpeting; and (3) lowmelt polyester staple fiber defined as a
bi-component fiber with an outer, nonpolyester sheath that melts at a
significantly lower temperature than its
inner polyester core (classified at
HTSUS 5503.20.0015).
Certain polyester staple fiber is
classifiable under the HTSUS numbers
5503.20.0045 and 5503.20.0065.
Although the HTSUS numbers are
provided for convenience and customs
purposes, the written description of the
merchandise under the order is
dispositive.
Continuation of the Order
As a result of determinations by
Commerce and the ITC that revocation
of the antidumping duty order would
likely lead to a continuation or
recurrence of dumping and material
injury to an industry in the United
States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(a),
Commerce hereby orders the
continuation of the antidumping duty
order on PSF from China. U.S. Customs
and Border Protection will continue to
collect antidumping duty cash deposits
at the rates in effect at the time of entry
for all imports of subject merchandise.
The effective date of the continuation
of the order will be the date of
