Argentina Honey: ITA Finalizes Earlier Revocation Date for AD/CV Duty Orders
The International Trade Administration moved up the effective date for revocation of the antidumping and countervailing duty orders on honey from Argentina (A-357-812 / C-357-813), after receiving no opposition to its preliminary results of a changed circumstances review. In the September results of a sunset review, the ITA revoked the AD/CV duty orders as of Aug. 2, 2012. Through this changed circumstances review, the ITA now says the effective date of revocation is Dec. 1, 2010, for the AD duty order, and Dec. 1, 2011, for the CV duty order.

The ITA will instruct CBP to liquidate without regard to AD duties all merchandise entered on or after Dec. 1, 2010, and refund any AD cash deposits collected on or after that date, with interest. It will also tell CBP to liquidate without regard to CV duties all merchandise entered on or after Jan. 1, 2012,1 and also refund any CV cash deposits collected on or after that date, with interest. The ITA concurrently rescinded the ongoing administrative review of the AD duty order on honey from Argentina (here).
1Because the ITA is not conducting an administrative review of the CV duty order for the relevant review period, there are no unliquidated entries for the period between the effective date of revocation (Dec. 1, 2011) and Jan. 1, 2012, so the ITA does not need to order liquidation of entries for that month, it said.
