Frozen Fish Fillets from Vietnam - Final Determination of Circumvention of AD Order
for the period October 22, 2004 through July 15,2005
Commerce has issued final determinations of circumvention of the antidumping duty order on frozen fish fillets from Vietnam. Commerce determined that frozen fish fillets produced by Lian Heng Trading Co., Ltd. and Lian Heng Investment Co. Ltd. (collectively, Lian Heng) are circumventing the antidumping duty order on frozen fish fillets from Vietnam. Commerce also determined that frozen fish fillets produced by Lian Heng are covered by the antidumping duty order on frozen fish fillets from Vietnam. Commerce is terminating the circumvention inquiry with respect to L.S.H. (Cambodia) Pte. Ltd. (L.S.H.) and Sun Wah Fisheries Co. Ltd. (Sun Wah) and rescinding the concurrently initiated scope inquiry.
Commerce will continue to direct CBP to suspend liquidation and to require a cash deposit of estimated duties at the Vietnam-wide rate on all unliquidated entries of frozen fish fillets produced by Lian Heng that were entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption from October 22, 2004 (the date of initiation of the circumvention inquiry) through July 15, 2005. For all entries of frozen fish fillets produced by Lian Heng entered on or after July 16, 2005, Commerce will direct CBP to allow Lian Heng to certify that no Vietnamese-origin fish was used in the production of the frozen fish fillets. CBP will not require a cash deposit of estimated duties at the Vietnam-wide rate for any entries accompanied by this certification. However, CBP will suspend liquidation and require a cash deposit of estimated duties at the Vietnam-wide rate of 63.88 percent for any entries not accompanied by this certification. No action will be taken with respect to Sun Wah and L.S.H. or any other Cambodian exporter other than Lian Heng.
