SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 17, 2025, the United States and

    In light of the agreement, Commerce is issuing this notice revoking

fish fillets from Vietnam produced and exported by Vinh Hoan which were 
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after 
August 1, 2021, without regard to antidumping duties.\3\ Commerce will 
also instruct CBP to discontinue the suspension of liquidation and the 
collection of cash deposits for estimated antidumping duties for 
entries of certain frozen fish fillets produced and exported by Vinh 
Hoan.

of Vinh Hoan Corporation, Van Duc Food Export Joint Stock Company,

Member Company Limited, and Vinh Phuoc Food Company Limited. See

under section 751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, for the 
August 1, 2022, through July 1, 2023, and August 1, 2023, through July 
1, 2024, periods of review with respect to Vinh Hoan as the exporter 
and producer.\4\
