The Department of Commerce is planning to cancel an administrative review of antidumping duties on electrolytic manganese dioxide from China for the period between October 2018 and September 2019. They determined that the company under review, Duracell (China) Limited, did not sell the product to unaffiliated U.S. customers during this time. Interested parties can comment on this preliminary decision and request a hearing within 30 days of the notice's publication in the Federal Register. If the review is ultimately rescinded, any affected imports will continue to be subject to the existing “China-wide” duty rate of 149.92 percent.
Simple Explanation
The Department of Commerce is thinking about not reviewing certain taxes on battery stuff from China because the company they were looking at didn’t sell any to the U.S. during the time they checked. People who are interested can tell them what they think about this plan.
