Commerce’s ‘‘automatic assessment’’ practice will apply to entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Toyo Kohan for which it did not know that the merchandise it sold to an intermediary (e.g., a reseller, trading company, or exporter) was destined for the United States.

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.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    Based on a review of the record and comments received from 
interested parties regarding our Preliminary Results, we made certain 
changes to the weighted-average dumping margin calculations for Toyo 
Kohan.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ For a full description of these changes, see Issues and 
Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Results of Review

    For these final results, we determine the following estimated 
weighted-average dumping margin exists for the period May 1, 2022, 
through April 30, 2023:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Toyo Kohan Co., Ltd....................................            4.44
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Disclosure

    Commerce intends to disclose the calculations performed for Toyo 
Kohan in connection with these final results to interested parties 
within five days of any public announcement or, if there is no public 
announcement, within five days of the date of publication of this 
notice in the Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).

Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.212(b)(1), Commerce has determined, and U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate 
entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of 
this review.
    For Toyo Kohan, we calculated importer-specific ad valorem duty 
assessment rates on the basis of the ratio of the total amount of 
dumping calculated for each importer's examined sales and the total 
entered value of those sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). 
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 (i.e., less 
than 0.5 percent), we will 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 Toyo Kohan for which 
it did not know that the merchandise it sold to an 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 established in the less-than-fair-value 
(LTFV) investigation of 45.42 percent ad valorem,\7\ if there is no 
rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Order, 79 FR 30816.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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 the company 
listed above will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin that 
is 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 investigated or reviewed companies not listed 
above, 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 participated; (3) if the exporter is 
not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the LTFV 
investigation, but the producer is, the cash deposit rate will be the 
cash deposit rate established for the most recently completed segment 
for the producer of the subject merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit 
rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be 45.42 
percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation.\8\ 
These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until 
further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Order, 79 FR 30816.

Administrative Protective Order

    This notice serves as the only reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under 
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which continues to govern 
business proprietary information in this segment of the proceeding. 
Timely written notification of return/destruction of APO materials or 
conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to 
comply with the regulations and the terms of an APO is a sanctionable 
violation.

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 Commerce's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of doubled antidumping duties.

Notification to Interested Parties

    This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
