As printed in the order notice (84 FR 45952, 3 September 2019). 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.

HTS numbers named in the scope

The subheadings the notice lists as the ones subject merchandise may enter under. They are given for convenience; the written scope is what decides whether goods are covered, and goods under other numbers can still be in scope.

Scope, from the order notice

scope of the orders if performed in China. Excluded from this scope are the following: (1) Steel wheels for use with tube-type tires; such tires use multi piece rims, which are two-piece and three-piece assemblies and require the use of an inner tube; (2) aluminum wheels; (3) certain on-the-road steel wheels that are coated entirely in chrome. This exclusion is limited to chrome wheels coated entirely in chrome and produced through a chromium electroplating process, and does not extend to wheels that have been finished with other processes, including, but not limited to, Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD); (4) steel wheels that do not meet Standard 110 or 120 of the NHTSA's requirements other than the rim marking requirements found in 49 CFR 571.110S4.4.2 and 571.120S5.2; (5) steel wheels that meet the following specifications: steel wheels with a nominal wheel diameter ranging from 15 inches to 16.5 inches, with a rim width of 8 inches or greater, and a wheel backspacing ranging from 3.75 inches to 5.5 inches; and (6) steel wheels with wire spokes. Certain on-the-road steel wheels subject to these orders are properly classifiable under the following category of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS): 8716.90.5035 which covers the exact product covered by the scope whether entered as an assembled wheel or in components. …

What C-570-091 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 Certain Steel Wheels 12 to 16.5 Inches in Diameter from China carries both deposits. The same product from two plants in China 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.
