1. Effective 01/01/2013, the Department of Commerce (the “Department”) revoked the antidumping duty order on wooden bedroom furniture from the People's Republic of China, in part, with respect to the shoe cabinets described below in paragraph 2. The Department published the final results of this changed circumstances review and revocation of the antidumping duty order, in part, in the Federal Register on 04/06/2015 (80 FR 18383). In the final results of the review, the Department determined that due to no interest, the shoe cabinets described below in paragraph 2 are not subject to the antidumping duty order on wooden bedroom furniture from the People's Republic of China.

2. The partial revocation applies to certain shoe cabinets meeting the following description:

Certain shoe cabinets 31.5-33.5 inches wide by 15.5-17.5 inches deep by 34.5-36.5 inches high. They are designed strictly to store shoes, which are intended to be aligned in rows perpendicular to the wall along which the cabinet is positioned. Shoe cabinets do not have drawers, rods, or other indicia for the storage of clothing other than shoes. The cabinets are not designed, manufactured, or offered for sale in coordinated groups or sets and are made substantially of wood, have two to four shelves inside them, and are covered by doors. The doors often have blinds that are designed to allow air circulation and release of bad odors. The doors themselves may be made of wood or glass. The depth of the shelves does not exceed 14 inches. Each shoe cabinet has doors, adjustable shelving, and ventilation holes.

3. Therefore, CBP is directed to terminate the suspension of liquidation for all shipments of shoe cabinets described in paragraph 2 above, entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after 01/01/2013. All such entries should be liquidated without regard to antidumping duties (i.e., release all bonds and refund all cash deposits).

4. Notice of the lifting of suspension of liquidation of entries covered by paragraph 3 occurred with the publication of the notice of the final results of changed circumstances review and revocation of antidumping duty order, in part, in the Federal Register (80 FR 18383, 04/06/2015).

5. 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 or bonds 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.
