LIQUIDATED UNTIL YOU RECEIVE SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS AFTER THE

COMPLETION OF THE ANTIDUMPING REVIEW, CONTINUE TO SUSPEND
LIQUIDATION OF ALL ENTRIES OF MERCHANDISE EXPORTED OR PRODUCED
BY THE LISTED FIRMS AND ENTERED, OR WITHDRAWN FROM WAREHOUSE,
FOR CONSUMPTION DURING THIS PERIOD.

4. THESE INSTRUCTIONS CONSTITUTE THE IMMEDIATE LIFTING OF

PERIODS LISTED ABOVE. YOU SHALL CONTINUE TO COLLECT CASH

5. 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 OVERPAYMENTS
OR ASSESS INTEREST ON UNDERPAYMENTS, OF THE 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 PUBLICATION OF
THE ANTIDUMPING DUTY ORDER. INTEREST SHALL BE CALCULATED FROM
THE DATE OF PAYMENT OF ESTIMATED ANTIDUMPING DUTIES THROUGH THE
DATE OF LIQUIDATION. THE RATE AT WHICH SUCH INTEREST IS PAYABLE
IS THE RATE IN EFFECT UNDER SECTION 6621 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE
CODE OF 1954 FOR SUCH PERIOD.

THAT THE IMPORTER PROVIDE A REIMBURSEMENT STATEMENT AS DESCRIBED

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.
