October 2023 — Question 50
What is the correct rate and duty designation under the following facts? CBP identified an importer’s shipment of ‘widgets’ with a country of origin of China that falls within the scope of antidumping and countervailing case A-570-998 and C-570-999 respectively. The entry was originally filed as a type 01 entry, and not on Immediate Delivery procedures. On September 10, 2023 CBP rejected the entry summary back to filer’s control to resubmit as a type 03 and make payment for duties owed. The shipment’s import date is March 25, 2023, the entry date is March 27, 2023 and the entry summary date is April 3, 2023. After broker review of the manufacturer and exporter in the shipment, it was determined the correct cases applicable to the parties are A-570-998-000 and C570-999-001. The following rates/dates are identified in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) Anti-dumping / Countervailing Duty (ADCVD) Case Information database: A-570-998-000 • Effective Date: 03/26/2022-35% • Effective Date: 03/26/2023-20% • Effective Date: 09/01/2023-10% C-570-999-001 • Effective Date: 01/01/2023-10% • Effective Date: 03/01/2023-0% • Effective Date: 04/01/2023-5%
