SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On June 22, 2020, the Department of
Commerce (Commerce) initiated a
countervailing duty (CVD) investigation
of imports of passenger vehicle and light
truck tires from the Socialist Republic of
Vietnam.1 Currently, the preliminary
determination is due no later than
August 26, 2020.
Postponement of Preliminary
Determination
Section 703(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act), requires
Commerce to issue the preliminary
determination in a CVD investigation
within 65 days after the date on which
Commerce initiated the investigation.
However, section 703(c)(1) of the Act
permits Commerce to postpone the
preliminary determination until no later
than 130 days after the date on which
Commerce initiated the investigation if:
(A) The petitioner makes a timely
request for a postponement; or (B)
Commerce concludes that the parties
concerned are cooperating, that the
investigation is extraordinarily
complicated, and that additional time is
necessary to make a preliminary
determination. Under 19 CFR
351.205(e), the petitioner must submit a
request for postponement 25 days or
more before the scheduled date of the
preliminary determination and must
state the reasons for the request.
Commerce will grant the request unless

(June 29, 2020).

it finds compelling reasons to deny the
request.2
On July 24 and August 4, 2020, the
petitioner 3 submitted timely requests
that Commerce postpone the
preliminary CVD determination.4
According to the petitioner, additional
time is necessary ‘‘to permit Commerce
to review respondents’ initial full
questionnaire responses, any comments
thereon and rebuttal factual information
filed in response, and any supplemental
questionnaire responses before
determining preliminary subsidy
rates.’’ 5 The petitioner further
elaborates that an extension of the
deadline for the preliminary results is
warranted ‘‘{g}iven the number of
programs under investigation, including
Commerce’s first investigation of a
currency undervaluation subsidy under
its new rules.’’ 6 Consistent with 19 CFR
351.205(e), the petitioner stated the
reasons for its request, and Commerce
finds no compelling reason to deny that
request. Therefore, in accordance with
section 703(c)(1)(A) of the Act,
Commerce is postponing the deadline
for the preliminary determination to no
later than 130 days after the date on
which this investigation was initiated,
until October 30, 2020. Pursuant to
section 705(a)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.210(b)(1), the deadline for the final
determination of this investigation will
continue to be 75 days after the date of
the preliminary determination, unless
postponed at a later date.

pursuant to section 703(c)(2) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1).
