Assessment Instructions for the Review Period (12/27/04 - 06/30/06)

The ITA intends to issue assessment instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection 15 days after December 10, 2007.

Where the importer-specific ad valorem rate is greater than de minimis and because the respondent has reported reliable entered values, the ITA will instruct CBP to apply the assessment rate to the entered value of the importer's entries during the review period.

The ITA adds that for entries of subject merchandise during the review period produced by CP Kelco, for which CP Kelco did not know that the merchandise it sold to an intermediary (e.g., a reseller, trading company, or exporter) was destined for the U.S., the ITA will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the "all-others" rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction. (See ITT's Online Archives or 06/02/03 news, 03060245, for BP summary of the ITA's May 2003 "automatic assessment" regulation.)

(See ITA notice for more information, including the scope of the order, etc. See ITT's Online Archives or 08/24/07 news, 07082440, for BP summary of the preliminary results of this AD duty administrative review.)
