• Effective Date: Apr 22, 2019
  • Notice of Lifting of Suspension Date: Apr 10, 2025
1. Notice of lifting of suspension of entries covered by paragraph 5 below occurred with this message and on the message date of these instructions. Unless instructed otherwise, for shipments of merchandise covered by the scope of the order you shall continue to collect cash deposits of estimated antidumping duties for the merchandise at the current rates. 2. On 02/24/2025, Commerce issued a final scope ruling that certain models of passenger vehicle and light truck wheels produced in the People's Republic of China (China) and imported by Keystone Automotive Industries Inc. (Keystone) are not covered by the scope of the antidumping duty order on certain steel wheels 12 to 16.5 inches in diameter from China (A-570-090). 3. Specifically, Commerce determined that certain models of passenger vehicle and light truck discs and rims imported by Keystone are outside the scope of the order because the requested products are distinguishable from in-scope trailer wheels on the basis of hub bore size, offset, load rating, and/or bolt pattern that make them unsuitable for use on trailer or towable equipment. Commerce thus determined that the product model numbers identified in Keystone's request are passenger vehicle and light truck wheels, not steel trailer wheels subject to the order. Specifically, the following product model numbers identified by Keystone in its scope request are not within the scope of the order: STLTS094U45N STLGD030U45N STLFD045U20N STLHS051U45N TLNL054U45N STLFC031U20N STLGP071U20N STLGC049U45N STLHX042U45N STLNM063U45N STLTU074A45N STLGG060U20N STLGG063U20N STLNM047U45N 4. This final scope ruling is applicable only to entries of the product models listed above imported by Keystone Automotive Industries Inc. 5. For all unliquidated entries of the above-listed models of passenger vehicle and light truck wheels produced in China and imported by Keystone that were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption, on or after 04/22/2019 (the first date of suspension of liquidation in this proceeding), CBP should terminate suspension of liquidation and liquidate such entries without regard to antidumping duties (i.e., refund all cash deposits). 6. The assessment of antidumping duties by CBP on shipments or entries of this merchandise is subject to the provisions of section 778 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended. 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 posted as estimated antidumping duties before the date of publication of the antidumping duty order. Interest shall be calculated from the date payment of estimated antidumping duties is required 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. 7. This instruction to liquidate entries of subject merchandise covered by this message does not limit CBP's independent authority, including its authority to suspend, continue to suspend, or extend liquidation of entries addressed by this message. Accordingly, CBP should examine all entries for which this message directs liquidation to determine whether any such entries are subject to suspension, continued suspension, or extension of liquidation pursuant to CBP's independent authority (e.g., Enforce and Protect Act proceeding under section 517 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended). If entries of subject merchandise covered by this message are subject to suspension, continued suspension, or extension of liquidation pursuant to CBP's own authority, CBP port officials should follow CBP's internal procedures with respect to continuing any suspension, the lifting of suspension, and/or continuing any extension of liquidation for such entries. 8. If there are any questions by the public regarding this message, please contact the Call Center for the Office of AD/CVD Operations, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce at (202) 482-0984. CBP ports should submit their inquiries through authorized CBP channels only. (This message was generated by OIII:AC.) 9. There are no restrictions on the release of this information. Alexander Amdur
