SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On January 2, 2020, Commerce published in the Federal Register a 
notice of opportunity to request an administrative review of the Order 
for the POR.\1\ In accordance with section 751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act 
of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.213(b), between January 
22, 2020, and January 31, 2020, Guangzhou Maria Yee Furnishings Ltd., 
Pyla HK Limited, and Maria Yee, Inc. (collectively, Maria Yee); \2\ 
Kimball International, Inc., Kimball Furniture Group, Inc., and Kimball 
Hospitality Inc. (collectively, Kimball); \3\ and the American 
Furniture Manufacturers Committee for Legal Trade and Vaughan-Bassett 
Furniture Company, Inc. (collectively, the petitioners),\4\ requested a 
review of the Order with respect to a number of companies. On March 10, 
2020, in accordance with section 751(a) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.221(c)(1)(i), Commerce initiated an administrative review of the 
Order with respect to the companies named by the requesting parties.\5\ 
Between May 8, 2020 and May 11, 2020, Maria Yee, Kimball, and the 
petitioners timely withdrew their review requests for all companies.\6\

    \1\ See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity to Request Administrative 
Review, 85 FR 64 (January 2, 2020).
    \2\ See Maria Yee's' letter ``Wooden Bedroom Furniture from the 
People's Republic of China; Request for Administrative Review and 
Request for Voluntary Respondent Treatment'' dated January 22, 2020.
    \3\ See Kimball's letter ``Wooden Bedroom Furniture from The 
People's Republic of China: Request For Initiation of Antidumping 
Duty Administrative Review'' dated January 31, 2020.
    \4\ See the Petitioners' letter ``Wooden Bedroom Furniture from 
the People's Republic of China: Request For Initiation Of 
Administrative Review'' dated January 31, 2020.
    \5\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews, 85 FR 13860 (March 10, 2020).
    \6\ See the Petitioners' letter ``Wooden Bedroom Furniture from 
the People's Republic of China: Withdraw of Request for 
Administrative Review'' dated May 8, 2020; Kimball's letter ``Wooden 
Bedroom Furniture from The People's Republic of China: Withdraw of 
Request Review'' dated May 8, 2020; and Maria Yee's letter ``Wooden 
Bedroom Furniture from the People's Republic of China; Maria Yee's 
Withdrawal of Request for Review'' dated May 11, 2020.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the parties that 
requested the review withdraw their requests within 90 days of the 
publication date of the notice of initiation of the requested reviews. 
The requesting parties withdrew all of their requests for review within 
the 90-day deadline. Because Commerce received no other requests for 
review, we are rescinding the administrative review of the AD order on 
wooden bedroom furniture from China covering the POR January 1, 2019, 
through December 31, 2019, in its entirety, in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(1).\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ Although all requests for an administrative review of 
Kunshan Jujia Decoration Design Co., Ltd. (Kushan Jujia) covering 
the period January 1, 2019, through December 31, 2019, were 
withdrawn, Kushan Jujia remains under review in an ongoing new 
shipper review covering the period January 1, 2019, through December 
31, 2019 (see Wooden Bedroom Furniture from the People's Republic of 
China: Initiation of Antidumping Duty New Shipper Review, 85 FR 
11342 (February 27, 2020)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment

    Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to 
assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of wooden bedroom 
furniture from China during the period January 1, 2019, through 
December 31, 2019, at rates equal to the cash deposit rates for 
estimated antidumping duties required at the time of entry, or 
withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue appropriate assessment 
instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of this 
notice in the Federal Register.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ Because Kunshan Jujia remains under review in an ongoing new 
shipper review, we will not instruct CBP to liquidation entries of 
subject merchandise from Kushan Jujia until the conclusion of the 
new shipper review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as the only reminder to importers of their 
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate 
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation 
of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply 
with this requirement could result in the presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of doubled antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order

    This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective orders (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under 
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which continues to govern 
business proprietary information in this segment of the proceeding. 
Timely written notification of the return or destruction of APO 
materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby 
requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and the terms of an 
APO is a sanctionable violation.
