Register, in accordance with 19 CFR

Duty Assessment
Commerce shall determine, and CBP
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C)
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
For Borusan, because its weightedaverage dumping margin is not zero or
de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent),
Commerce has calculated importerspecific antidumping duty assessment
rates. We calculated importer-specific
ad valorem antidumping duty
assessment rates by aggregating the total
amount of dumping calculated for the
examined sales of each importer and
dividing each of these amounts by the
total entered value associated with those
sales. We will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review where an
importer-specific assessment rate is not
zero or de minimis. Pursuant to 19 CFR
351.106(c)(2), we will instruct CBP to
liquidate without regard to antidumping
duties any entries for which the
importer-specific assessment rate is zero
or de minimis.
For Toscelik, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate its entries during the POR
imported by the importers identified in
its questionnaire responses without
regard to antidumping duties because its
weighted-average dumping margin in
these final results is zero.13
For companies that were not selected
for individual examination, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed
entries based on the methodology
described in the ‘‘Final Rates for NonExamined Companies’’ section, above.

the Weighted-Average Dumping Margin and
Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping Duty

Consistent with Commerce’s
assessment practice, for entries of
subject merchandise during the POR
produced by any company upon which
we initiated an administrative review,
for which they did not know that the
merchandise was destined for the
United States, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate unreviewed entries at the allothers rate if there is no rate for the
intermediate company(ies) involved in
the transaction.14
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 for all
shipments of 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entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,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 rates will be equal to
the weighted-average dumping margins
established in the final results of this
review; (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 recently completed segment of this
proceeding in which the company was
reviewed; (3) if the exporter is not a firm
covered in this review, a previous
review, or the original less-than-fairvalue (LTFV) investigation, but the
manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate
will be the rate established for the most
recently completed segment of this
proceeding for the manufacturer of
subject merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers
or exporters will continue to be 14.74
percent, the all-others rate established
in the LTFV investigation.15 These
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 presumption that

otherwise extended.7
Assessment Rates
Upon issuing the final results of the
review, Commerce shall determine, and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties
on all appropriate entries covered by
this review. Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP 15 days
after the date of publication of the final
results of review.
For any individually examined
respondents whose weighted-average
dumping margin is above de minimis,
we will calculate importer-specific ad
valorem duty assessment rates based on
the ratio of the total amount of dumping
calculated for the importer’s examined
sales to the total entered value of those
same sales in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1).8 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 respondent’s
weighted-average dumping margin is
zero or de minimis, or an importerspecific assessment rate is zero or de
minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.
The final results of this review shall
be the basis for the assessment of
antidumping duties on entries of
merchandise covered by the final results

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

Assessment Rates
Upon issuing the final results of the review, Commerce shall
determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review.
Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after
the date of publication of the final results of review.
For any individually examined respondents whose weighted-average
dumping margin is above de minimis, we will calculate importer-specific
ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount
of dumping calculated for the importer's examined sales to the total
entered value of those same sales in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1).\8\ 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 respondent's weighted-average
dumping margin is zero or de minimis, or an importer-specific
assessment rate is zero or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.

\8\ In these preliminary results, Commerce applied the
calculation methodology adopted in Antidumping Proceedings:
Calculation of the Weighted-Average Dumping Margin and Assessment
Rate in Certain Antidumping Proceedings: Final Modification, 77 FR
8101 (February 14, 2012).

The final results of this review shall be the basis for the
assessment of antidumping duties on entries of merchandise covered by
the final results

of this review and for future deposits of estimated duties, where
applicable.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results for all shipments of PET Film from the
UAE entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after
the date of publication of the final results of this administrative
review, as provided for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The
cash deposit rate for the companies under review will be the rate
established in the final results of this review (except, if the rate is
zero or de minimis, no cash deposit will be required); (2) for
previously reviewed or investigated companies not listed above, 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 less-than-fair-value
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 4.05 percent, the all-
others rate established in the investigation.\9\ These cash deposit
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 Commerce's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
These preliminary results of administrative review are issued and
published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the
Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1).

Operations, performing the non-exclusive functions and duties of the
