Certain Frozen Fish Fillets from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam: Final Results of the Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and New Shipper Reviews
The Department of Commerce (``Department'') has conducted an administrative review and two new shipper reviews of the antidumping duty order on certain frozen fish fillets from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (``Vietnam''). See Notice of Antidumping Duty Order: Certain Frozen Fish Fillets from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, 68 FR 47909 (August 12, 2003) (``Order''). The administrative review and new shipper reviews include four companies, the mandatory respondents, QVD Food Company Ltd. (``QVD''),\1\ and Vinh Hoan Corporation (``Vinh Hoan''), and the two new shipper review companies, are Saigon-Mekong Fishery Co., Ltd. (``SAMEFICO''), and Cadovimex II Seafood Import-Export & Processing Joint Stock Company (``Cadovimex II''). We preliminarily found that QVD, Vinh Hoan, SAMEFICO, and Cadovimex II, did not sell subject merchandise at less than normal value (``NV'') and thus received zero margins during the period of review (``POR''), August 1, 2007, through July 31, 2008. See Preliminary Results. We gave interested parties an opportunity to comment on the Preliminary Results. Based upon our analysis of the comments and information received, we made changes to the dumping margin calculations for the final results.\2\ The final dumping margins are listed below in the section entitled ``Final Results of the Reviews.''
