13 days, to 133 days after the
publication date of the Preliminary
Results.2 The deadline for the final
results of this review is now October 15,
2021. For a complete description of the
events that occurred since the
Preliminary Results, see the Issues and
Decision Memorandum.3
Commerce conducted this
administrative review in accordance
with section 751 of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act).
Scope of the Order
The products covered by this order
are certain uncoated paper from
Portugal. For a full description of the
scope, see the Issues and Decision
Memorandum.
Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the case and
rebuttal briefs are addressed in the
Issues and Decision Memorandum. A
list of the issues that parties raised and
to which we responded in the Issues
and Decision Memorandum is attached
to this notice as an appendix. The Issues
and 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 Issues and Decision
Memorandum can be accessed directly
at https://access.trade.gov/public/
FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on a review of the record and
comments received from interested
parties, we have recalculated the
weighted-average dumping margin for
Navigator. Specifically, we made a
change to one post-sale price adjustment
for Navigator’s home market sales. For
a more detailed discussion of this
change, see the Final Analysis
Memorandum.4
Final Results of the Review
Commerce determines that the
following weighted-average dumping
margin exists for the period March 1,
2019, through February 29, 2020:

from Portugal: Extension of Deadline for Final

Disclosure
Commerce intends to disclose to
interested parties the calculations
performed in connection with the final
results within five days of any public
announcement or, if there is no public
announcement, within five days of the
date of publication of the notice of final
determination in the Federal Register,
in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
Assessment Rate
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the
Act, and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1),
Commerce shall determine, and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review.
Because Navigator’s weighted-average
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
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 sales value
associated with those sales. Where an
importer-specific assessment rate is zero
or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.
For entries of subject merchandise
during the POR produced by Navigator
for which it did not know its
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.5
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 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 Navigator will
be the rate established in the final
results of this administrative review; (2)
for merchandise exported by producers
or exporters not covered in this
administrative review but covered in a
prior segment of the proceeding, the
cash deposit rate will continue to be the
company-specific rate published for the
most recently completed segment of this
proceeding; (3) if the exporter is not a
firm covered in this review, a prior
review, or the original less-than-fairvalue (LTFV) investigation, but the
producer is, the cash deposit rate will be
the rate established for the most recently
completed segment of this proceeding
for the producer of the subject
merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit
rate for all other manufacturers or
exporters will continue to be 7.80
percent, the all-others rate established
in the LTFV investigation.6 These cash
deposit requirements, when imposed,
shall remain in effect until further
notice.

Notification to Importers

to importers of their responsibility
under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a

of antidumping duties prior to
liquidation of the relevant entries
during this POR. Failure to comply with
this requirement could result in
Commerce’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
has occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping
duties.
Administrative Protective Order
This notice also serves as a final
reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective order (APO) of
