Malaysian Exporter Challenges AD Review Into Polyethylene Retail Carrier Bags

The Commerce Department's use of adverse facts available over antidumping duty respondent Euro SME's reporting of certain U.S. inland freight data was illegal, Euro said in an April 7 complaint at the Court of International Trade. The respondent filed the case to contest Commerce's final results in the 2019-2020 administrative review of the antidumping duty order on polyethylene retail carrier bags from Malaysia. Euro further challenged Commerce's decision to give only a partial credit for revenue associated with its U.S. movement expenses and the use of partial AFA over the reporting of certain home market freight data (Euro SME SDN Bhd v. U.S., CIT #22-00108).
