As printed in the order notice (85 FR 19925, 9 April 2020). The deposit an entry pays today is the rate assigned to the exporter or producer on the invoice in the latest administrative review, which can be higher or lower than this; a company that has never been reviewed keeps the all-others rate. Check the current rate for your supplier in Commerce's ACCESS case record before pricing an order.

Scope, from the order notice

Scope of the Order The merchandise covered by the scope of this order is carbon and alloy steel threaded rod. Steel threaded rod is certain threaded rod, bar, or studs, of carbon or alloy steel, having a solid, circular cross section of any diameter, in any straight length. Steel threaded rod is normally drawn, cold-rolled, threaded, and straightened, or it may be hot-rolled. In addition, the steel threaded rod, bar, or studs subject to these investigations are non- headed and threaded along greater than 25 percent of their total actual length. A variety of finishes or coatings, such as plain oil finish as a temporary rust protectant, zinc coating (i.e., galvanized, whether by electroplating or hot-dipping), paint, and other similar finishes and coatings, may be applied to the merchandise. Steel threaded rod is normally produced to American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) specifications ASTM A36, ASTM A193 B7/ B7m, ASTM A193 B16, ASTM A307, ASTM A320 L7/L7M, ASTM A320 L43, ASTM A354 BC and BD, ASTM A449, ASTM F1554-36, ASTM F1554-55, ASTM F1554 Grade 105, American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) specification ASME B18.31.3, and American Petroleum Institute (API) specification API 20E. …

What A-533-887 means when you import

Cash deposit at entry. For every entry of goods in scope, CBP collects an estimated antidumping duty cash deposit at the rate assigned to the exporter or producer on the entry, on top of the Column 1 duty and any Chapter 99 trade-remedy lines. Because a companion countervailing case exists, an entry of Carbon and Alloy Steel Threaded Rod from India carries both deposits. The same product from two plants in India can deposit at different rates, so ask the supplier which legal entity will appear as exporter and as producer on the invoice before you price the order.

Deposit now, final duty later. The deposit is not the final duty. The entry stays unliquidated until Commerce completes the administrative review for the period it was entered in, then CBP liquidates it at the rate that review sets, and bills or refunds the difference with interest. AD/CVD entries therefore stay open for years, and the importer of record carries the difference. Commerce must be asked for a review each anniversary month of the order; if nobody asks, entries liquidate at the deposit rate.

Reimbursement certificate. Before liquidation the importer files a certificate under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) stating whether the exporter has paid or reimbursed the antidumping duty. If it is not filed, Commerce may presume reimbursement and deduct the duty a second time in the margin calculation. Brokers file it with the entry summary; make sure yours does.

Entry reporting. The AD/CVD case number goes on the 7501 line alongside the HTS number, and any Chapter 99 lines the goods carry are reported in the order CBP prescribes; the tariff updates tracker carries the current Chapter 99 sequence and the actions behind it. Goods finished, cut or packaged in a third country stay in scope if the notice's written scope covers them, so a change of shipping origin is not a change of AD/CVD origin.

Estimating the stack. The tariff simulator returns the Column 1 rate and the Chapter 99 additional duties for an HTS number and origin; it does not add antidumping or countervailing deposits. Add the deposit at your supplier's current rate on top of what it shows.
