4. THE ASSESSMENT OF ANTIDUMPING DUTIES BY U.S. CUSTOMS AND
BORDER PROTECTION (CBP) ON 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 AND
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 WHICH IS JULY 14, 1994. INTEREST
SHALL BE CALCULATED FROM THE DATE PAYMENT OF ESTIMATED
ANTIDUMPING DUTIES IS REQUIRED THROUGH THE DATE OF LIQUIDATION.

5. UPON ASSESSMENT OF ANTIDUMPING DUTIES, CBP SHOULD REQUIRE THAT
THE IMPORTER PROVIDE A REIMBURSEMENT STATEMENT AS DESCRIBED IN 19
CFR 351.402. IMPORTERS WERE NOTIFIED OF THIS REQUIREMENT WHEN
THE NOTICES OF PRELIMINARY AND FINAL RESULTS OF THE
ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW WERE PUBLISHED IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER.
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.
