Rates in the order notice
1.25%All-others subsidy rate
As printed in the order notice (79 FR 65926, 6 November 2014). 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 subject to this investigation is steel concrete
reinforcing bar imported in either straight length or coil form (rebar)
regardless of metallurgy, length, diameter, or grade. The subject
merchandise is classifiable in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS) primarily under item numbers 7213.10.0000,
7214.20.0000, and 7228.30.8010. The subject merchandise may also enter
under other HTSUS numbers including 7215.90.1000, 7215.90.5000,
7221.00.0015, 7221.00.0030, 7221.00.0045, 7222.11.0001, 7222.11.0057,
7222.11.0059, 7222.30.0001, 7227.20.0080, 7227.90.6085, 7228.20.1000,
and 7228.60.6000. Specifically excluded are plain rounds (i.e., non-
deformed or smooth rebar). Also excluded from the scope is deformed
steel wire meeting ASTM A1064/A1064M with no bar markings (e.g., mill
mark, size, or grade) and without being subject to an elongation test.
The HTSUS numbers are provided for convenience and customs purposes;
however, the written description of the scope remains dispositive.

What C-489-819 means when you import
Cash deposit at entry. For every entry of goods in scope, CBP collects an estimated countervailing 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 antidumping case exists, an entry of Steel Concrete Reinforcing Bar from Türkiye carries both deposits. The same product from two plants in Türkiye 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. Airlift USA does not hold a US customs broker licence; entries on cargo we move are filed through our licensed broker network.
