    The U.S. Department of Commerce has amended the final results of an administrative review involving Nagase & Co., Ltd. related to the antidumping duty on glycine from Japan for the period between October 31, 2018, and May 31, 2020. This amendment comes after a settlement agreement was reached between Nagase and the United States, which resolves a legal dispute that had previously been appealed up to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. As part of the settlement, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to liquidate entries of the glycine at certain rates determined by the agreement. The existing cash deposit rates will not be revised due to a superseding review determining different rates.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. and a company from Japan agreed to change some past rules about a special product called glycine, making sure the rules are fairer. They're deciding how much money the company should pay when bringing glycine into the U.S., but this won't change the current amount they have to pay for future shipments.

    The Department of Commerce is partially rescinding an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on light-walled rectangular pipe and tube from Mexico. This decision affects the review period from August 1, 2019, to July 31, 2020, due to some parties withdrawing their requests for a review of 12 companies within the required timeframe. As a result, the review will no longer include these 12 companies but will continue for the remaining seven companies. The department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection on how to assess duties for the products involved.

    Simple Explanation

    The Department of Commerce decided not to look at some Mexican companies' pipe and tube products to see if they are unfairly priced because some people asked them not to. They'll keep checking products from other companies to see if any extra taxes are needed.

Public comments are being sought up until March 15, 2021, and the goal is to improve the collection process and reduce the burden on those who have to fill it out.

    Simple Explanation

    The Homeland Security Department wants people to tell them what they think about a form that needs to be filled out when something gets fixed in another country and comes back to the U.S. This form helps them decide how much money needs to be paid for those fixes. 🛠️🚢

    The U.S. Department of Commerce determined that narrow woven ribbons with woven selvedge from Taiwan were sold at prices lower than normal in the U.S. during the review period from September 1, 2022, to August 31, 2023. Since no parties commented on the preliminary findings, Commerce finalized the results without changes, relying on adverse facts available for two Taiwanese companies, Hao Shyang and Lung Che. This decision means they will face antidumping duties, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection will assess these duties according to the final results. New cash deposit rates will apply based on the outcome of this review.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. found that special ribbons from Taiwan were sold really cheap in America, more than they should have been, so the U.S. is going to charge extra fees called duties on them to make sure prices are fair.

Importers are reminded to file necessary certificates to avoid doubled duties, and parties involved must manage proprietary information according to regulations.

    Simple Explanation
