SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On April 6, 2026, Commerce published the preliminary results of
this administrative review of the AD order on polyethylene retail
carrier bags from China in the Federal Register and invited interested
parties to comment.\1\ We received no comments from interested parties
on the Preliminary Results and have made no changes to the Preliminary
Results. Accordingly, no decision memorandum accompanies this Federal
Register notice and the Preliminary Results are hereby adopted in these
final results. Commerce conducted this administrative review in
accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the Act).

China-Wide Entity
As stated in the Preliminary Results, because no party requested a
review of the China-wide entity in this review, the China-wide entity
is not under review and the China-wide entity's rate, i.e., 77.57
percent, is not subject to change.\4\

Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations
of the final results of an administrative review within five days of a
public announcement or, if there is no public announcement, within five
days of the date of publication of the notice of final results in the
Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). However,
because we have made no changes to the Preliminary Results, there are
no calculations to disclose.

Assessment Rates
Consistent with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), Commerce has determined, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries of subject merchandise covered by 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).
We have not calculated any assessment rates in this administrative
review. As Commerce continues to find that Crown is part of the China-
wide entity, we will instruct CBP to assess any suspended entries of
subject merchandise associated with Crown at the China-wide rate, i.e.,
77.57 percent.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this administrative review for
shipments of the subject merchandise from China entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date, as
provided in section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) for previously
investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese exporters that are not
under review in this segment of the proceeding but have separate rates,
the cash deposit rate will continue to be the exporter's existing cash
deposit rate; (2) for all Chinese exporters of subject merchandise that
have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit
rate will be the existing rate for the China-wide entity, i.e., 77.57
percent; and (3) for all non-Chinese exporters of subject merchandise
which have not received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be
the rate applicable to the Chinese exporter that supplied that non-
Chinese 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 review period. Failure to comply
with this requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties has occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Order (APO)
This notice also serves as a final 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, which continues to govern business proprietary information in
this segment of the proceeding. 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
These final results are issued and published in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1)(B) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.221(b)(5).
Dated: August 4, 2026.
