Aluminum Exporter Alerts CIT to Separate AD Review in Case Involving Duty Drawback Adjustment
Antidumping duty respondent Assan Aluminyum Sanayi ve Ticaret filed a second notice of supplemental authorities in its AD case at the Court of International Trade to point to a separate AD review involving a duty drawback adjustment and Commerce's requirement that only closed inward processing certificates be included in the numerator of Commerce's per unit calculation (Assan Aluminyum Sanayi ve Ticaret v. U.S., CIT Consol. # 21-00616).

Assan is challenging the AD investigation into aluminum foil from Turkey. The respondent argued against the agency's use of weight-averaged raw material premium costs for all control numbers and its decision to deduct Section 232 duties from the exporter's U.S. price, limit Assan's fully duty drawback adjustment and treat certain management fees as indirect selling expenses (see 2201040042).
Assan previously submitted a notice of supplemental authority alerting the court to Commerce's preliminary determination in the 2020-22 review of the AD order on common alloy aluminum sheet from Turkey (see 2310310045). Now that the review's final determination has been issued, the respondent attached the agency's findings, along with the issues and decision memorandum from the review.
