China Wooden Bedroom Furniture: New AD Cash Rates for 60 Firms

August 26, 2011 by Barbara Chaves|AD/CV - Patent

The International Trade Administration has issued an amended antidumping duty final determination and order pursuant to a court decision1 for wooden bedroom furniture from China (A-570-890). The ITA is revising the cash deposit rate for Dorbest Limited2 to 2.40% as well as the cash deposit rates for 59 separate rate companies3 to 6.68%. These amended rates, which sources confirm take effect August 13, 2011, are expected to be implemented by CBP soon.

(See notice for complete information, including background on the litigation; that ITA will continue the suspension of liquidation of all enjoined entries, pending the expiration of the period of appeal or, if appealed, pending a final and conclusive court decision; that the China-wide rate remains the same; and for “corrections” ITA made to a previous version of the notice which had only been released to involved parties. See ITT’s Online Archives or 11/17/04, 01/05/05 and 08/11/11 news, 04111737, 05010555 and 11081048 for BP summaries of the original final determination; order; and most recent final results of administrative review.)

1On August 3, 2011, the Court of International Trade (CIT) sustained ITA’s April 2011 remand redetermination pursuant to the court’s fourth remand of ITA’s November 17, 2004 Final Determination for wooden bedroom furniture from China. See ITT’s Online Archives or 06/21/11 and 08/08/11 news, 11062120 and 11080811, for BP summaries of ITA announcing a revision to its non-market economy labor cost methodology and CIT upholding ITA’s methodology.
