According to CBP, 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) requires the importer to file, prior to liquidation, a statement certifying whether or not they have entered into any agreement or understanding for the payment or refunding of antidumping duties assessed on the imported cargo. If this certificate is not filed prior to liquidation, CBP will assess double antidumping duties.
