SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On March 29, 2023, Commerce published in the Federal Register the
preliminary results of the 2021-2022 administrative review \1\ of the
antidumping duty order on circular welded carbon steel pipes and tubes
(CWP) from Thailand.\2\ We invited interested parties to comment on the
Preliminary Results. No interested parties submitted comments.
Accordingly, Commerce made no changes to the Preliminary Results.
Commerce conducted this administrative review in accordance with
section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

Order is provided in the Preliminary Results.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Results of Review
We determine that the following weighted-average dumping margin
[[Page 37856]]
exists for the period March 1, 2021, through February 28, 2022:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-
average
Producer/exporter dumping
margin
(percent)

Thai Premium Pipe Co. Ltd.................................. 0.71
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disclosure
Because Commerce received no comments on the Preliminary Results,
we have not modified our analysis and no decision memorandum
accompanies this Federal Register notice. We are adopting the
Preliminary Results as the final results of this review. Consequently,
there are no new calculations to disclose in accordance with 19 CFR
351.224(b) for these final results.
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b),
Commerce has determined, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject
merchandise in accordance with the final results of this review. We
intend to instruct CBP to apply the importer-specific ad valorem
assessment rates we calculated for the Preliminary Results on the basis
of the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for each
importer's examined sales and the total entered value of those same
sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).\4\ If the importer-
specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis, then Commerce will
instruct CBP to liquidate such entries without regard to antidumping
duties.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ See Antidumping Proceedings: Calculation of the Weighted-
Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping
Proceedings: Final Modification, 77 FR 8101, 8103 (February 14,
2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by TPP,
for which it did not know that its merchandise was destined for the
United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at
the all-others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate
company(ies) involved in the transaction.
Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier
than 35 days after the date of publication of these final results of
this review in the Federal Register. If a timely summons is filed at
the U.S. Court of International Trade, the assessment instructions will
direct CBP not to liquidate relevant entries until the time for parties
to file a request for a statutory injunction has expired (i.e., within
90 days of publication).
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication in the Federal Register of the notice of final results of
administrative review for all shipments of CWP from Thailand entered,
or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of
publication as provided for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the
cash deposit rate for TPP will be equal to the weighted-average dumping
margin established in the final results of this review; (2) for
merchandise exported by a company not covered in this review but
covered in a prior completed segment of the proceeding, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published in
the completed segment for the most recent period; (3) if the exporter
is not a firm covered in this review or another completed segment of
this proceeding, but the producer is, then the cash deposit rate will
be the company-specific rate established for the completed segment for
the most recent period for the producer of the merchandise; and (4) the
cash deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to
be 15.67 percent, the all-others rate established in the less-than-
fair-value investigation.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ See Order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in
effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during the POR. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement
of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double
antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Order
This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to
an administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305. 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 terms of an APO is a violation subject
to sanction.
Notification to Interested Parties
Commerce is issuing and publishing the final results of this review
in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and
351.221(b)(5).
Dated: June 5, 2023.
