4. THE ASSESSMENT OF ANTIDUMPING DUTIES BY CUSTOMS AND BORDER
PROTECTION ON SHIPMENTS OR ENTRIES OF THIS MERCHANDISE IS
SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 778 OF THE TARIFF ACT OF
1930. SECTION 778 REQUIRES THAT CBP PAY INTEREST ON

REQUIRED AMOUNTS DEPOSITED AS ESTIMATED ANTIDUMPING DUTIES.
THE INTEREST PROVISIONS ARE NOT APPLICABLE TO CASH OR BONDS
POSTED AS ESTIMATED ANTIDUMPING DUTIES BEFORE THE DATE OF

THAT THE IMPORTER PROVIDE A REIMBURSEMENT STATEMENT AS

REGULATIONS. THE IMPORTER SHOULD PROVIDE THE REIMBURSEMENT
STATEMENT PRIOR TO LIQUIDATION OF THE ENTRY. IF THE IMPORTER
CERTIFIES THAT IT HAS AN AGREEMENT WITH THE EXPORTER TO BE
REIMBURSED ANTIDUMPING DUTIES, CBP SHOULD DOUBLE THE
ANTIDUMPING DUTIES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ABOVE-REFERENCED
REGULATION. ADDITIONALLY, IF THE IMPORTER DOES NOT RESPOND
TO YOUR FORMAL REQUEST FOR THE REIMBURSEMENT STATEMENT PRIOR
TO LIQUIDATION, CBP SHOULD PRESUME REIMBURSEMENT AND DOUBLE
THE ANTIDUMPING DUTIES DUE.
