instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate
entries without regard to antidumping
duties.
Commerce’s ‘‘automatic assessment’’
practice will apply to entries of subject
merchandise during the POR produced
by companies included in these final
results of review for which the reviewed
companies did not know that the
merchandise they sold to the
intermediary (e.g., a reseller, trading
company, or exporter) was destined for
the United States. In such instances, we
will instruct CBP to liquidate
unreviewed entries at the all-others rate
if there is no rate for the intermediate
company(ies) involved in the
transaction.20
Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP no
earlier than 35 days after the date of
publication of the final results of this
review in the Federal Register. If a
timely summons is filed at the U.S.
Court of International Trade, the
assessment instructions will direct CBP
not to liquidate relevant entries until the
time for parties to file a request for a
statutory injunction has expired (i.e.,
within 90 days of publication).

cash deposit rate for the exporter listed
above will be that 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 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 prior review,
or the less-than-fair value (LTFV)
investigation, but the manufacturer is,
then the cash deposit rate will be the
rate established for the most recentlycompleted segment of this proceeding

Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a 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.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing these
results in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On April 8, 2020, based on timely
requests for review, in accordance with
19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), we initiated an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on large
residential washers from Mexico, for
one company, Electrolux Home
Products Corp. N.V. and Electrolux
Home Products de Mexico, S.A. de C.V.
(collectively, Electrolux).1 The period of
review (POR) is February 1, 2019,
through January 31, 2020. On April 24,
2020, Commerce tolled all deadlines in
administrative reviews by 50 days.2 On
July 21, 2020, Commerce tolled all
deadlines in administrative reviews by
an additional 60 days.3 In January 2021,
we extended the preliminary results of
this review to no later than June 18,
2021.4 For a complete description of the
events that followed the initiation of
this review, see the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum.5

President signed into law the Juneteenth National
Independence Day Act, making June 19 a Federal
holiday. See Juneteenth National Independence Day
Act, S. 475, Public Law 117–17 (2021). Because the
Federal holiday fell on a Saturday, it was observed
on Friday, June 18, 2021. Where a deadline falls on
a weekend or Federal holiday, the appropriate
deadline is the next business day. See Notice of
Clarification: Application of ‘‘Next Business Day’’

Scope of the Order
The products covered by the order are
all large residential washers and certain
subassemblies thereof from Mexico.6
The products are currently classifiable
under subheadings 8450.20.0040 and
8450.20.0080 of the Harmonized Tariff
System of the United States (HTSUS).
Products subject to this order may also

8450.11.0040, 8450.11.0080,
8450.90.2000, and 8450.90.6000.
Although the HTSUS subheadings are
provided for convenience and customs
purposes, the written description of the
merchandise subject to this scope is
dispositive.
Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review
in accordance with section 751(a) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).
Constructed export price is calculated in
accordance with section 772 of the Act.
NV is calculated in accordance with

antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries.7
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we
calculated importer-specific ad valorem
duty assessment rates based on the ratio
of the total amount of dumping
calculated for the examined sales to the
total entered value of the sales for which
entered value was reported. Where
either the respondent’s weightedaverage dumping margin is zero or de
minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR
351.106(c)(1), 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. 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.8
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 that 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
cash deposit rate published for the most
recently completed segment; (3) if the
exporter is not a firm covered in this
review, a prior review, or the original
less-than-fair-value (LTFV)
investigation, but the producer is, the
cash deposit rate will be the rate
established for the most recent segment
for the producer of the merchandise;
and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other
producers or exporters will continue to
be 36.52 percent, the all-others rate
established in the LTFV investigation.9
These deposit requirements, when
imposed, shall remain in effect until
further notice.

information, and the no shipment

Pacific Activated Carbon Products Co.,
Ltd., Jilin Bright Future Chemicals Co.,
Ltd., Shanxi Dapu International Trade
Co., Ltd., Shanxi Industry Technology
Trading Co., Ltd., Shanxi Tianxi
Purification Filter Co., Ltd., and Tianjin
Channel Filters Co., Ltd., Commerce
preliminarily determines that these
companies had no shipments of subject
merchandise during the POR. For
additional information regarding this
determination, see the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum.
Consistent with our practice in nonmarket economy (NME) cases, we are
not rescinding this review but instead
intend to complete the review with
respect to these six companies for which
we have preliminarily found no
shipments and issue appropriate
instructions to CBP based on the final
results of the review.7
Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review
in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(B)
of the Act. We calculated export prices
and constructed export prices in
accordance with section 772 of the Act.
Because China is an NME country
within the meaning of section 771(18) of
the Act, NV has been calculated in
accordance with section 773(c) of the
Act.

Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section
751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Constructed
export price is calculated in accordance with section 772 of the Act.
NV is calculated in accordance with section 773 of the Act. For a full
description of the methodology underlying our conclusions, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum. The Preliminary Decision Memorandum is
a public document and is on file electronically via Enforcement and
Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic
Service System (ACCESS). ACCESS is available to registered users at
https://access.trade.gov. In addition, a complete version of the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum can be accessed at https://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/summary/mexico/mexico-fr.htm. A list of the
topics discussed in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is attached as
an appendix to this notice.
Preliminary Results of the Review
We preliminarily determine that the following weighted-average
dumping margin exists for the period February 1, 2019, through January
31, 2020:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-
Exporter/producer average
margin
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Electrolux Home Products Corp. N.V. and Electrolux Home 2.17
Products de Mexico, S.A. de C.V...........................
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment Rates
Upon completion of this administrative review, Commerce shall
determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we calculated importer-specific
ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount
of dumping calculated for the examined sales to the total entered value
of the sales for which entered value was reported. Where either the
respondent's weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimis
within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), 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.
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.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 that 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 cash deposit rate published for the most recently
completed segment; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this
review, a prior review, or the original less-than-fair-value (LTFV)
investigation, but the producer is, the cash deposit rate will be the
rate established for the most recent segment for the producer of the
merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers or
exporters will continue to be 36.52 percent, the all-others rate
established in the LTFV investigation.\9\ These 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 the Secretary's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties 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.
Dated: June 21, 2021.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations.
