SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 1, 2010, Commerce published in the Federal Register
the antidumping duty (AD) order on ribbons from Taiwan.\1\ On September
3, 2024, Commerce published in the Federal Register a notice of
opportunity to request an administrative review of the Order for the
POR.\2\

\2\ See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity To Request Administrative
Review and Join Annual Inquiry Service List, 89 FR 71254 (September
3, 2024).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to section 751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the Act), and 19 CFR 351.213(b)(1), on September 30, 2024, Commerce
received a timely request to conduct an administrative review of the
Order for 59 producers/exporters from Berwick Offray LLC and its
wholly-owned subsidiary Lion Ribbon Company, LLC (the petitioners).\3\
On October 17, 2024, based on this timely request, in accordance with
19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), we initiated an administrative review of the
Order.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ See Petitioners' Letter, ``Request for Administrative
Review,'' dated September 30, 2024.
\4\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Administrative Reviews, 89 FR 83644 (October 17, 2024).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On January 15, 2025, the petitioners timely withdrew their request
for an administrative review with respect to five companies.\5\ In
addition, on July 3, 2025, Commerce stated we intended to rescind this
review for the 52 companies with no entries during the POR.\6\ For a
complete description of the events that followed the initiation of this
review, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.\7\

Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with sections
751(a)(1)(B) and (2) of the Act. Pursuant to sections 776(a) and (b) of
the Act, Commerce preliminarily relied entirely upon facts otherwise
available with adverse inferences for Lace Fashions Industrial Co.,
Ltd. (Lace Fashions) and Trydent Co., Ltd. (Trydent). For a complete
description of the methodology underlying our conclusions, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum. A list of topics discussed in the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum is attached in Appendix I of this
notice. The Preliminary Decision Memorandum is a public document and is
on file electronically via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS).
ACCESS is available to registered users at <a href="https://access.trade.gov">https://access.trade.gov</a>. In
addition, a complete version of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is
available at <a href="https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx">https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx</a>.
Rescission of Review, in Part
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in part, if a party who requested
the review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of
publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. On
January 15, 2025, the petitioners timely withdrew their request for an
administrative review with respect to Dear Year Brothers Mfg. Co.,
Ltd.; Hao Shyang Ind. Co. Ltd.; Hsien Chan Enterprise Co., Ltd, Novelty
Handicrafts Co., Ltd., and Shienq Huong Enterprise Co., Ltd.; \9\ Lung
Che Ribbons Enterprises Co. Ltd.; and Maple Ribbon.\10\ Because no
other parties requested a review of these companies, we are rescinding
the administrative review with respect to these companies.
Additionally, we are rescinding this administrative review with respect
to 52 companies with no POR entries of subject merchandise.
Accordingly, we are rescinding this administrative
[[Page 42932]]
review, in part, with respect to the 57 companies listed in Appendix
II. The administrative review remains active with respect to the
mandatory respondents, Lace Fashions and Trydent.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ These three companies are being treated as a single entity
for AD purposes. See Narrow Woven Ribbons with Woven Selvedge from
Taiwan: Preliminary Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value
and Postponement of Final Determination, 75 FR 7236 (February 18,
2010), unchanged in Notice of Final Determination of Sales at Less
Than Fair Value: Narrow Woven Ribbons with Woven Selvedge from
Taiwan, 75 FR 41804 (July 19, 2010).

Preliminary Results of Review
Commerce preliminarily determines that the following estimated
weighted-average dumping margins exist for the period September 1,
2023, through August 31, 2024:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-
average
Producer or exporter dumping
margin
(percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lace Fashions Industrial Co., Ltd........................... * 137.20
Trydent Co., Ltd............................................ * 137.20
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* This rate is based on facts available with adverse inferences.
Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations
performed in connection with its preliminary results finding within
five days of any public announcement or, if there is no public
announcement, within five days of the date of publication of the notice
of preliminary results in the Federal Register, in accordance with 19
CFR 351.224(b). However, because Commerce preliminarily applied total
adverse facts available to the two individually examined companies
subject to this this review, in accordance with section 776 of the Act,
there are no calculations to disclose.
Public Comment
Case briefs or other written comments may be submitted to the
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance no later than 21
days after the date of publication of these preliminary results.\11\
Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues raised in the case briefs, may be
filed no later than five days after the date for filing case
briefs.\12\ Interested parties who submit case briefs or rebuttal
briefs in this proceeding must submit: (1) a table of contents listing
each issue; and, (2) a table of authorities.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ Commerce is exercising its discretion under 19 CFR
351.309(c)(1)(ii) to alter the time limit for the filing of case
briefs. See 19 CFR 351.309(c)(1)(ii).
\12\ See 19 CFR 351.309(d); see also Administrative Protective
Order, Service, and Other Procedures in Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings, 88 FR 67069, 67077 (September 29,
2023) (APO and Service Procedures).
\13\ See 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As provided under 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2), in prior
proceedings we have encouraged interested parties to provide an
executive summary of their briefs that should be limited to five pages
total, including footnotes. In this review, we instead request that
interested parties provide at the beginning of their briefs a public,
executive summary for each issue raised in their briefs.\14\ Further,
we request that interested parties limit their public executive summary
of each issue to no more than 450 words, not including citations. We
intend to use the public executive summaries as the basis of the
comment summaries included in the issues and decision memorandum that
will accompany the final results in this administrative review. We
request that interested parties include footnotes for relevant
citations in the public executive summary of each issue. Note that
Commerce has amended certain of its requirements pertaining to the
service of documents in 19 CFR 351.303(f).\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\14\ We use the term ``issue'' here to describe an argument that
Commerce would normally address in a comment of the Issues and
Decision Memorandum.
\15\ See APO and Service Procedures.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Interested parties who wish to request a hearing must submit a
written request to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and
Compliance, U.S. Department of Commerce, using Enforcement and
Compliance's ACCESS system within 30 days of publication of this
notice.\16\ Requests should contain 1) the party's name, address, and
telephone number; 2) the number of participants and whether any
participant is a foreign national; and 3) a list of the issues to be
discussed. Issues raised in the hearing will be limited to those raised
in the case and rebuttal briefs. If a request for a hearing is made, we
will inform parties of the scheduled date for the hearing at a time and
location to be determined.\17\ Parties should confirm by telephone the
date, time, and location of the hearing no fewer than two days before
the scheduled date. Parties are reminded that all briefs and hearing
requests must be filed electronically using ACCESS and received
successfully in their entirety by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the due
date.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\16\ See 19 CFR 351.310(c).
\17\ See 19 CFR 351.310.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the Act, upon completion of the
final results of administrative review, Commerce shall determine, and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review.\18\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\18\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the companies for which this review is being rescinded, in
part, Commerce will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries. Antidumping duties shall be assessed at rates
equal to the cash deposit rate for estimated antidumping duties
required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). With respect
to the recission of this review, in part, Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date
of publication of this notice in the Federal Register.
For companies subject to this review, Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date
of publication of the 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 ribbons from Taiwan 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 Lace Fashions and Trydent 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 manufacturers or exporters
will continue to be 4.37 percent, the all-others rate determined in the
less-than-fair-value
[[Page 42933]]
investigation.\19\ These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\19\ See Order, 75 FR at 56985.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Results of Review
Unless the deadline is extended pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2), Commerce will issue the final results
of this administrative review, including the results of our analysis of
the issues raised by the parties in their case briefs, not later than
120 days after the date of publication of this notice, pursuant to
section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a preliminary reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties
prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this review period.
Failure to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce's
presumption that reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing
duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping
duties, and/or an increase in the amount of antidumping duties by the
amount of countervailing duties.\20\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\20\ See 19 CFR 351.402(f)(3).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing these preliminary results in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.213(h) and 351.221(b)(4).
