3. THE ASSESSMENT OF ANTIDUMPING DUTIES BY THE U.S. CUSTOMS AND
BORDER PROTECTION ("CBP") ON SHIPMENTS OR ENTRIES OF THIS
MERCHANDISE IS SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 778 OF THE
TARIFF ACT OF 1930. SECTION 778 REQUIRES THAT CBP PAY INTEREST
ON OVERPAYMENTS OR ASSESS INTEREST ON UNDERPAYMENTS OF THE
REQUIRED AMOUNTS DEPOSITED AS ESTIMATED ANTIDUMPING DUTIES.
THE INTEREST PROVISIONS ARE NOT APPLICABLE TO CASH OR BONDS
POSTED AS ESTIMATED ANTIDUMPING DUTIES BEFORE THE DATE OF
PUBLICATION OF THE ANTIDUMPING DUTY ORDER. INTEREST SHALL BE
CALCULATED FROM THE DATE OF PAYMENT OF ESTIMATED ANTIDUMPING
DUTIES THROUGH THE DATE OF LIQUIDATION. THE RATE AT WHICH SUCH
INTEREST IS PAYABLE IS THE RATE IN EFFECT UNDER SECTION 6621 OF
THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1954 FOR SUCH PERIOD.

4. UPON ASSESSMENT OF ANTIDUMPING DUTIES, CBP SHOULD REQUIRE THAT
THE IMPORTER PROVIDE A REIMBURSEMENT STATEMENT AS DESCRIBED IN

THE IMPORTER SHOULD PROVIDE THE REIMBURSEMENT STATEMENT PRIOR TO
LIQUIDATION OF THE ENTRY. IF THE IMPORTER CERTIFIES THAT IT HAS
AN AGREEMENT WITH THE EXPORTER TO BE REIMBURSED ANTIDUMPING
DUTIES, CBP SHOULD DOUBLE THE ANTIDUMPING DUTIES IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE ABOVE-REFERENCED REGULATION. ADDITIONALLY, IF THE
IMPORTER DOES NOT RESPOND TO YOUR FORMAL REQUEST (VIA CF 28 OR
29) FOR THE REIMBURSEMENT STATEMENT PRIOR TO LIQUIDATION, CBP
SHOULD PRESUME REIMBURSEMENT AND DOUBLE THE ANTIDUMPING DUTIES
DUE.
