Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication in the Federal Register of
the notice of the final results of this
administrative review for all shipments
of subject merchandise entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the date of
publication as provided in section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the cash
deposit rate for the individually
examined respondents will be equal to
the weighted-average dumping margins
established in the final results of this
administrative 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), then the cash deposit
rate will be zero; (2) for merchandise
exported by a company not covered in
this review but covered in a prior
completed segment of this proceeding,
the cash deposit rate will continue to be
the company-specific rate published in
the completed segment for the most
recent period; (3) if the exporter is not
a firm covered in this review, a prior
review, or the investigation but the
producer is, then the cash deposit rate
will be the company-specific rate
established in the most recently
completed segment of this proceeding
for the producer of the merchandise;
and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other
producers or exporters will continue to
be 1.95 percent, the all-others rate
established in the investigation,
adjusted for the export-subsidy rate in
the companion countervailing duty
investigation.29 These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a preliminary
reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR
351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of
antidumping and/or countervailing
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 and/or
countervailing duties occurred and the
subsequent assessment of double
antidumping duties, and/or an increase
in the amount of antidumping duties by
the amount of countervailing duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing these
preliminary results in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the
Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1) and (3),

Assessment Rates
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 section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.212(b). 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).
Because the final weighted-average
dumping margins for all respondents in
this review are zero, we intend to
instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate
entries without regard to antidumping
duties.7 Consistent with Commerce’s
clarification of its assessment practice,
for entries of subject merchandise
during the POR produced by Hyundai
Steel or SeAH where it did not know
that the merchandise was destined for
the United States, we will instruct CBP
to liquidate those entries at the allothers rate established in the original
less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation
of 7.08 percent ad valorem,8 if there is
no rate for the intermediate
company(ies) involved in the
transaction.9

‘‘Section IV. Changes Since the Preliminary
Results.’’

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 for Hyundai Steel and
SeAH will be equal to the weightedaverage dumping margins established in
the final results of this administrative
review; (2) for merchandise exported by
a producer or exporter not covered in
this 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 in which the producer or
exporter participated; (3) if the exporter
is not a firm covered in this review, a
prior review, or the original LTFV
investigation, but the producer is, the
cash deposit rate will be the rate
established for the most recently
completed segment of the proceeding
for the producer of the merchandise;
and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other
producers and exporters will continue
to be 7.08 percent ad valorem, the allothers rate established in the LTFV
investigation.10 These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers Regarding the
Reimbursement of Duties
This notice also serves as a final
reminder to importers of their

Analysis of Comments Received
We addressed all issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs
filed in this administrative review in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum. A list of topics included in the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum is attached in Appendix I to this notice. The Issues and

at https://access.trade/gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on our evaluation of the comments received from interested
parties regarding our Preliminary Results and our review of the record
to address those comments, we made certain changes to the weighted-
average dumping margin calculations for
[[Page 100981]]
Hyundai Steel and SeAH, as detailed in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ See Issues and Decision Memorandum at ``Section IV. Changes
Since the Preliminary Results.''

\5\ On November 14, 2024, Commerce determined that Hyundai Steel
Pipe Co., Ltd. is the successor-in-interest to Hyundai Steel
Company. See Circular Welded Non-Alloy Steel Pipe from the Republic
of Korea; Certain Oil Country Tubular Goods from the Republic of
Korea; Welded Line Pipe From the Republic of Korea; and Large
Diameter Welded Pipe from the Republic of Korea: Notice of Final
Results of Antidumping Duty Changed Circumstances Reviews, 89 FR
89962 (November 14, 2024).
\6\ See Appendix II.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We intend to disclose the calculations performed for these final
results of review to interested parties 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
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 section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.212(b). 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).
Because the final weighted-average dumping margins for all
respondents in this review are zero, we intend to instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping
duties.\7\ Consistent with Commerce's clarification of its assessment
practice, for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by
Hyundai Steel or SeAH where it did not know that the merchandise was
destined for the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate those
entries at the all-others rate established in the original less-than-
fair-value (LTFV) investigation of 7.08 percent ad valorem,\8\ if there
is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the
transaction.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ See 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
\8\ See Order, 84 FR at 18769.

Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties,

Cash Deposit Requirements
The following 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 rates for Hyundai Steel

Notification to Importers Regarding the Reimbursement of Duties
This notice also 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 and/or countervailing 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 and/or countervailing duties has
occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties,
and/or increase in the amount of antidumping duties by the amount of
the countervailing duties.

This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective orders (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the return or destruction 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 the return or
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.

We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
