Analysis of Comments Received
We addressed the issue raised by the petitioners in their letter in
lieu of a case brief in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. The issue
that the petitioners raised, and to which we responded in the Issues
and Decision Memorandum, is identified in the appendix to this notice.
The Issues and 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 Issues and Decision Memorandum can
be accessed directly at <a href="https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx">https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx</a>.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
We have not granted a separate rate to seven companies under
review. For further details of the changes since the Preliminary
Results, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.
Separate Rates
The following companies did not file a no-shipments letter, a
separate rate application or certification, and did not respond to
Commerce's quantity and value questionnaire and additional questions in
order to receive consideration for separate rate status: (1) Dorbest
Ltd.; (2) Fine Furniture (Shanghai) Ltd.; (3) Rui Feng Lumber
Development Co., Ltd.; (4) Rui Feng Woodwork Co., Ltd.; (5) Wanvog
Furniture (Kunshan) Co., Ltd.; (6) Yeh Brothers World Trade Inc.; and
(7) Zhongshan Fookyik Furniture Co., Ltd. Therefore, we have not
granted a separate rate to these companies and have treated them as
part of the China-wide entity.
Additionally, we continue to determine that Shenzhen New Fudu
Furniture Co., Ltd. failed to demonstrate that it qualifies for a
separate rate status, and thus we have treated it as part of the China-
wide entity.
Final Results of Review
We find that the following companies are part of the China-wide
entity because they did not demonstrate their eligibility for a
separate rate: (1) Dorbest Ltd.; (2) Fine Furniture (Shanghai) Ltd.;
(3) Rui Feng Lumber Development Co., Ltd.; (4) Rui Feng Woodwork Co.,
Ltd.; (5) Wanvog Furniture (Kunshan) Co., Ltd.; (6) Yeh Brothers World
Trade Inc.; (7) Zhongshan Fookyik Furniture Co., Ltd.; and (8) Shenzhen
New Fudu Furniture Co., Ltd.
Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses the calculations and analysis
performed for the final results of review within five days of the date
of publication of the notice of final results of review in the Federal
Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). However, because
Commerce did not calculate any dumping margins in this review, there
are no calculations to disclose.
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.212(b), Commerce will determine, and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise covered by the
final results of this review. Commerce intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of
publication date 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).
We intend to instruct CBP to liquidate entries of subject
merchandise exported by the companies list above that failed to qualify
for a separate rate at the China-wide entity rate.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements for estimated antidumping
duties will be effective for all shipments of subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the
date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register as provided
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) for any previously investigated
or reviewed China or non-China exporter that has a separate rate, the
cash deposit rate will continue to be the exporter's existing cash
deposit rate; (2) for all China exporters of subject merchandise that
do not have a separate rate, including those exporters that failed to
establish their separate rate eligibility in this review, the cash
deposit rate will be equal to the dumping margin assigned to the China-
wide entity, which is 216.01 percent; and (3) for all non-China
exporters of subject merchandise that do not have a separate rate, the
cash deposit rate will be equal to the dumping margin applicable to the
China exporter(s) that supplied that non-China exporter. 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 this 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 (APO)
This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to
an APO of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of
proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR
351.305(a)(3). 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
We are issuing these final results of administrative review and
publishing this notice in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)
of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2) and 351.221(b)(5).
Dated: September 11, 2025.
