SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On November 2, 1992, Commerce published in the Federal Register the AD order on CWP from Korea.^[1] On August 4, 2022, Commerce initiated a country-wide circumvention inquiry to determine whether certain imports of CWP completed in Vietnam using HRS produced in Korea are circumventing the Order.^[2] On April 12, 2023, Commerce published in the Federal Register its Preliminary Determination that imports of CWP completed in Vietnam using HRS produced in Korea are circumventing the Order.^[3] On May 15, 2023, Commerce extended the deadline for the final determination of this circumvention inquiry to August 4, 2023.^[4] On July 20, 2023, Commerce further extended the deadline for the final determination to November 2, 2023.^[5] For a summary of events that occurred since Commerce published the Preliminary Determination, as well as a full discussion of the issues raised by parties for consideration in the final determination, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.^[6] The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS). ACCESS is available to registered users at https://access.trade.gov. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at https://access.trade.gov/​public/​FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.

Scope of the Order

The products covered by the Order include certain welded carbon steel standard CWP with an outside diameter of 0.375 inch or more but not over 16 inches. For a full description of the scope of the Order, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.

Merchandise Subject to the Circumvention Inquiry

This circumvention inquiry covers CWP completed in Vietnam using Korea-origin HRS and subsequently exported from Vietnam to the United States (inquiry merchandise).

Methodology

Commerce is conducting this circumvention inquiry in accordance with section 781(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.226. See Preliminary Determination PDM for a full description of the methodology.^[7] We have continued to apply this methodology, without exception, and incorporate by reference this description of the methodology, for our final determination.^[8]

Determination of No Shipments

Based on the information provided by Vietnam Haiphong Hongyuan Machinery Manufactory Co., Ltd. (Vietnam Haiphong) in this circumvention inquiry, Commerce continues to find, as it did in the Preliminary Determination, that Vietnam Haiphong had no shipments of inquiry merchandise to the United States during the period of inquiry, January 1, 2017, through December 31, 2021.^[9]

Analysis of Comments Received

All issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs by parties in these inquiries are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of the issues raised is attached to this notice at Appendix I.

Based on our analysis of the comments received from interested parties, we did not revise the Preliminary Determination, except for revisions to the certification language ( see Appendix II), which we have modified in response to comments to allow parties to also use the certifications when their shipments of CWP were not produced using HRS.

Final Circumvention Determination

As detailed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum, Commerce determines that CWP completed in Vietnam using Korea-origin HRS and subsequently exported from Vietnam to the United States is circumventing the Order on a country-wide basis. As a result, in accordance with section 781(b) of the Act, we determine that the inquiry merchandise should be included within the scope of the Order. See the “Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposit Requirements” section, below, for details regarding suspension of liquidation and cash deposit requirements. See the “Certifications” and “Certification Requirements for Vietnam” sections, below, for details regarding the use of certifications.

Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposit Requirements

Based on the affirmative country-wide determination of circumvention for Korea, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.226(l)(3), we will direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to suspend liquidation and require a cash deposit of estimated duties on unliquidated entries of CWP completed in Vietnam using Korea-origin HRS, that were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after August 4, 2022, the date of publication of the initiation of this circumvention inquiry in the Federal Register .

CWP produced in Vietnam from HRS that is not of Korean origin is not subject to this inquiry. Therefore, cash deposits are not required for such merchandise under the Korea Order. However, Commerce finds that CWP completed in Vietnam using the People's Republic of China (China)-origin HRS is circumventing the AD and countervailing duty (CVD) orders on CWP from China, and certain welded carbon steel standard pipes and tubes (pipe and tube) from India completed in Vietnam using India-origin HRS are circumventing the AD order on pipe and tube from India.^[10] Imports of such merchandise are subject to certification requirements, and cash deposits may be required.

If an importer imports CWP from Vietnam and claims that the CWP was not produced from Korea-origin HRS, or alternately, claims that the CWP was produced using an input other the HRS, the importer and exporter are required to meet the certification and documentation requirements described in the “Certifications” and “Certification Requirements for Vietnam” sections below in order to not be subject to the Korea Order cash deposit requirements.

See Appendix II for the revised importer and exporter certifications, which we have modified in response to comments to allow parties to also use the certifications when their shipments of CWP were not produced using HRS.

Where no certification is provided for an entry, and AD/CVD orders from three countries (China, India, or Korea) potentially apply to that entry, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to suspend the entry and collect cash deposits at the rates applicable to the AD and CVD orders on CWP from China ( i.e., the AD cash deposit rate established for the China-wide entity (85.55 percent) and the CVD cash deposit rate established for all-others (39.01 percent)) under the following third country CBP case numbers: A–552–009–000 and C–552–009–000.^[11] This is to prevent evasion, given that the AD/CVD cash deposit rates established for CWP from China are higher than the AD cash deposit rates established for pipe and tube from India and CWP from Korea.

Where a certification is provided for the AD/CVD orders on CWP from China (stating that the merchandise was not produced using China-origin HRS or was produced using an input other than HRS), but no other certification is provided, then Commerce intends to instruct CBP to suspend the entry and collect cash deposits at the rate applicable to the AD order on pipe and tube from India ( i.e., the AD cash deposit rate established for all-others (7.08 percent)) under the following third country case number: A–552–012–000.^[12] This is to prevent evasion, given that the AD cash deposit rate established for pipe and tube from India is higher than the AD cash deposit rate established for CWP from Korea.

To enter inquiry merchandise (CWP produced in Vietnam using Korea-origin HRS) parties must provide certifications for the AD/CVD orders on CWP from China (stating that the merchandise was not produced using China-origin HRS) and for the AD order on pipe and tube from India (stating that the merchandise was not produced using India-origin HRS). Commerce established the following third country CBP case number in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) for entries of CWP produced in Vietnam using Korea-origin HRS: A–552–011–000. Commerce also established the following company-specific third-country CBP case number for SeAH Vina, for which Commerce made an affirmative determination of circumvention, for entries of CWP produced in Vietnam using Korea-origin HRS: A–552–011–001. The cash deposit rate will be the Korea AD all-others rate ( i.e., 4.80 percent).^[13]

These suspension of liquidation instructions will remain in effect until further notice.

Certified Entries

Entries for which the importer and exporter have met the certification requirements described below and in Appendix II to this notice will not be subject to suspension of liquidation, or the cash deposit requirements described above. Failure to comply with the applicable requisite certification requirements may result in the merchandise being subject to AD and CVD duties.

Certifications

To administer the country-wide affirmative determination of circumvention for Vietnam, Commerce established importer and exporter certifications which allow companies to certify that specific entries of CWP from Vietnam are not subject to suspension of liquidation or the collection of cash deposits pursuant to this country-wide affirmative determination of circumvention because the merchandise was not made with Korea-origin HRS or was made with an input other than HRS ( see Appendix II to this notice).

Importers and exporters that claim that the entry of CWP is not subject to suspension of liquidation or the collection of cash deposits because the merchandise was not made with Korea-origin HRS or was made with an input other than HRS must complete the applicable certification and meet the certification and documentation requirements described below, as well as the requirements identified in the applicable certification.

Certification Requirements for Vietnam

Importers are required to complete and maintain the applicable importer certification, and maintain a copy of the applicable exporter certification, and retain all supporting documentation for both certifications. With the exception of the entries described below, the importer certification must be completed, signed, and dated by the time the entry summary is filed for the relevant entry. The importer, or the importer's agent, must submit both the importer's certification and the exporter's certification to CBP as part of the entry process by uploading them into the document imaging system (DIS) in ACE. Where the importer uses a broker to facilitate the entry process, the importer should obtain the entry summary number from the broker. Agents of the importer, such as a broker, however, are not permitted to certify on behalf of the importer.

Exporters are required to complete and maintain the applicable exporter certification and provide the importer with a copy of that certification and all supporting documentation ( e.g., invoice, purchase order, production records, etc.). With the exception of the entries described below, the exporter certification must be completed, signed, and dated by the time of shipment of the relevant entries. The exporter certification should be completed by the party selling the CWP that was manufactured in Vietnam to the United States.

Additionally, the claims made in the certifications and any supporting documentation are subject to verification by Commerce and/or CBP. Importers and exporters are required to maintain the certifications and supporting documentation until the later of: (1) the date that is five years after the latest entry date of the entries covered by the certification; or (2) the date that is three years after the conclusion of any litigation in United States courts regarding such entries.

For all CWP from Vietnam that was entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption during the period August 4, 2022 (the date of initiation of this circumvention inquiry), through the date of publication of the Preliminary Determination in the Federal Register , where the entry has not been liquidated (and entries for which liquidation has not become final), the relevant certification should already be complete and signed.

For unliquidated entries (and entries for which liquidation has not become final) of CWP that were declared as non-AD type entries ( e.g., type 01) and entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption in the United States during the period August 4, 2022 (the date of initiation of these circumvention inquiries), through the date of publication of the Preliminary Determination in the Federal Register , for which none of the above certifications may be made, importers must file a Post Summary Correction with CBP, in accordance with CBP's regulations, regarding conversion of such entries from non-AD type entries to AD type entries ( e.g., type 01 to type 03). Importers should report those AD type entries using the third country CBP case numbers identified in the “Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposit Requirements” section, above. The importer should post cash deposits on those entries consistent with the regulations governing post summary corrections that require payment of additional duties, including AD/CVD duties.

If it is determined that an importer or exporter has not met the certification and related documentation requirements for certain entries, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to suspend, pursuant to this country-wide affirmative determination of circumvention and the Order,^[14] all unliquidated entries for which these requirements were not met and require the importer to post applicable cash deposits equal to the rates noted above.

Opportunity To Request an Administrative Review

Each year during the anniversary month of the publication of an AD or CVD order, finding, or suspended investigation, an interested party, as defined in section 771(9) of the Act, may request, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213, that Commerce conduct an administrative review of that AD or CVD order, finding, or suspended investigation. An interested party who would like Commerce to conduct an administrative review should wait until Commerce announces via the Federal Register the next opportunity to request a review during the anniversary month of the publication of the AD order to submit such requests. The anniversary month for this Order is November.

Administrative Protective Order

This notice will serve as the only reminder to all parties subject to administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility concerning the destruction of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). 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.

Notification to Interested Parties

This determination is issued and published in accordance with section 781(b) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.226(g)(2).

Dated: November 2, 2023.
