Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp From the Socialist Republic of 
Vietnam: Preliminary Results, Partial Rescission, and Preliminary 
Determination of No Shipments of Antidumping Duty Administrative 
Review; 2022-2023

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) preliminarily 
determines that no companies under review qualify for a separate rate 
and that these companies are, therefore, considered part of the 
Socialist Republic of Vietnam (Vietnam)-wide entity. Additionally, 
Commerce is partially rescinding this review with respect to companies 
for which all review requests were timely withdrawn. Further, Commerce 
preliminary determines that certain companies had no shipments of 
subject merchandise during the period of review (POR), February 1, 
2022, through January 31, 2023. Interested parties are invited to 
comment on these preliminary results.

DATES: Applicable November 3, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On February 2, 2023, Commerce published a notice of opportunity to 
request an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
certain frozen warmwater shrimp from the Vietnam.\1\ Commerce received 
timely requests for an administrative review from AHSTAC (the 
petitioner),\2\ ASPA (domestic processors),\3\ and numerous Vietnamese 
companies. On April 11, 2023, Commerce published in the Federal 
Register a notice of initiation of an administrative review of the 
Order for the period February 1, 2022, through January 31, 2023, 
covering 187 companies including multiple companies with name 
variations/abbreviations in accordance with section 751(a) of the 
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act) and 19 CFR 
351.221(c)(1)(i).\4\

Suspended Investigation; Opportunity to Request Administrative 
Review, 88 FR 7071 (February 2, 2023); see also Notice of Amended 
Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and Antidumping 
Duty Order: Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp from the Socialist 
Republic of Vietnam, 70 FR 5152 (February 1, 2005) (Order).
    \2\ The petitioner, AHSTAC, is the Ad Hoc Shrimp Trade Action 
Committee.
    \3\ The domestic processors, ASPA, are the American Shrimp 
Processors Association.
    \4\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews, 88 FR 21609 (April 11, 2023) (Initiation 
Notice).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On May 16 and 17, 2023, the petitioner filed timely withdrawals of 
its review requests of 41 companies.\5\ On May 17, 2023, ASPA filed 
timely withdrawals of its review requests of 35 companies.\6\ On May 
16, 2023, Ngoc Tri Seafood Joint Stock Company, Tai Kim Anh Seafood 
Joint Stock Corporation, and 49 other Vietnamese producers and/

[[Page 75551]]

or exporters, including Viet I-Mei Frozen Foods Co., Ltd. (Viet I-Mei), 
withdrew their review requests of themselves.\7\ On May 25, 2023, Kim 
Anh Company and QNL One Member Company timely withdrew their review 
requests of themselves.\8\ Therefore, Commerce is rescinding its review 
with respect to the 66 companies for which all review requests were 
withdrawn, listed in Appendix II of this notice, as discussed below.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Petitioner's Letters, ``Domestic Producers' Partial 
Withdrawal of Review Requests,'' dated May 16, 2023; and ``Domestic 
Producers' Partial Withdrawal of Review Requests,'' dated May 17, 
2023.

Association's Partial Withdrawal of Review Requests,'' dated May 17,

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Respondent Selection

    On April 27, 2023, only one company, Viet I-Mei, filed a timely 
separate rate certification.\9\ On May 3, 2023, Commerce released U.S. 
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) entry data in order to select 
respondents for individual examination.\10\ We received comments 
regarding respondent selection from the petitioner on May 10, 2023.\11\ 
However, Commerce did not select any mandatory respondents for 
individual examination because the sole company which timely filed a 
separate rate application and/or certification and was, therefore, 
eligible for individual examination (i.e., Viet I-Mei) had no remaining 
review requests on the record, as discussed below.

Scope of the Order

    The merchandise subject to the Order is certain frozen warmwater 
shrimp. The product is currently classified under the following 
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) item 
subheadings: 0306.17.0004, 0306.17.0005, 0306.17.0007, 0306.17.0008, 
0306.17.0010, 0306.17.0011, 0306.17.0013, 0306.17.0014, 0306.17.0016, 
0306.17.0017, 0306.17.0019, 0306.17.0020, 0306.17.0022, 0306.17.0023, 
0306.17.0025, 0306.17.0026, 0306.17.0028, 0306.17.0029, 0306.17.0041, 
0306.17.0042, 1605.21.10.30, and 1605.29.10.10. Although the HTSUS 
subheadings are provided for convenience and for customs purposes, the 
written product description, provided in Appendix I, remains 
dispositive.

Partial Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party that requested 
the review withdraws its request within 90 days of the publication of 
the notice of initiation of the requested review. Because all requests 
for administrative review of the 66 companies listed in Appendix II 
were withdrawn by interested parties within 90 days of the date of 
publication of the Initiation Notice, and no other interested party 
requested a review of them, Commerce is rescinding this review with 
respect to these companies and their name variations/abbreviations, in 
accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). Commerce will instruct CBP to 
assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries at a rate equal to 
the cash deposit of estimated antidumping duties required at the time 
of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, during the 
period February 1, 2022, through January 31, 2023, in accordance with 
19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue appropriate 
assessment instructions to CBP 35 days after the publication of this 
notice in the Federal Register. The administrative review remains 
active with respect to 121 companies.

Preliminary Determination of No Shipments

    Commerce received timely no-shipment certifications from four 
companies: Bien Dong Seafood Co., Ltd.; Vinh Hoan Corp.; Seavina Joint 
Stock Company; and BIM Foods Joint Stock Company.\12\ To confirm these 
companies' no-shipment claims, Commerce issued a no-shipment inquiry to 
CBP and received no contradictory information.\13\ Therefore, we 
preliminarily determine that these four companies did not have any 
shipments of subject merchandise during the POR. Consistent with 
Commerce's practice, we will not rescind the review with respect to 
these companies, but, rather, will complete the review and issue 
instructions based on the final results.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See BIM Foods Joint Stock Company's Letter, ``No Shipments 
Certification,'' dated April 11, 2023; see also Vinh Hoan Corp. and 
Van Duc Food Export Joint Stock Company's Letter, ``No Shipment 
Certification,'' dated April 28, 2023; Bien Dong Seafood Co., Ltd.'s 
Letter, ``Notice of No Sales,'' dated May 9, 2023; and Seavina Joint 
Stock Company's Letter, ``Notice of No Sales,'' dated May 9, 2023. 
We omitted Van Duc Export Joint Stock Company from this list because 
although it timely filed a no-shipment certification, the company is 
not under review. See Initiation Notice, 88 FR at 21617.
    \13\ See Memorandum, ``No Shipment Inquiry for Multiple 
Companies During the Period 02/01/2022 through 01/31/2023,'' dated 
July 11, 2023 (where CBP confirmed that it found no entries of 
subject merchandise by Bien Dong Seafood Co., Ltd., Vinh Hoan Corp., 
Van Duc Food Export Joint Stock Company, Seavina, and Seavina Joint 
Stock Company, and BIM Foods Joint Stock Company, or BIM Seafood 
Joint Stock Company).

of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694 (October 24, 2011) (NME AD 
Assessment); see also ``Assessment Rates'' section, infra.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Vietnam-Wide Entity

    Commerce finds that 117 companies (see Appendix III) under review 
have not established eligibility for a separate rate and are considered 
to be part of the Vietnam-wide entity for these preliminary results. 
Commerce's policy regarding conditional review of the Vietnam-wide 
entity applies to this administrative review.\15\ Under this policy, 
the Vietnam-wide entity will not be under review unless a party 
specifically requests, or Commerce self-initiates, a review of the 
entity. Because no party requested a review of the Vietnam-wide entity, 
the entity is not under review and the entity's rate of 25.76 percent 
is not subject to change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \15\ See Antidumping Proceedings: Announcement of Change in 
Department Practice for Respondent Selection in Antidumping Duty 
Proceedings and Conditional Review of the Nonmarket Economy Entity 
in NME Antidumping Duty Proceedings, 78 FR 65963 (November 4, 2013).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Preliminary Results of Review

    Commerce finds that because no company still under review submitted 
a timely separate rate application or separate rate certification, no 
company still under review has established eligibility for a separate 
rate. Based on the above information, Commerce has not calculated any 
dumping margins for any companies under review, nor has Commerce 
granted separate rates to any companies under review. Additionally, as 
discussed above, Commerce has preliminarily determined that the 117 
companies that remain under review but which did not submit no-shipment 
certifications are subject to the Vietnam-wide entity rate of 25.76 
percent (see Appendix III).

Disclosure and Public Comment

    Normally, Commerce will disclose the calculations used in its 
analysis to parties in this review within five days of the date of 
publication of the notice of preliminary results in the Federal 
Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). However, here Commerce 
only applied the Vietnam-wide rate, which was established in the 
underlying investigation,\16\ to the 117 companies

[[Page 75552]]

identified in Appendix III. Thus, there are no calculations to 
disclose.

telephone number; (2) the number of participants; (3) whether any 
participant is a foreign national; and (4) a list of issues to be 
discussed. Issues raised in the hearing will be limited to issues 
raised in the briefs. If a request for a hearing is made, Commerce 
intends to hold the hearing at a time and date to be determined.\22\

Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.212(b)(1), Commerce will determine, and CBP shall assess, 
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise 
covered by this review. For the companies in which Commerce is 
rescinding this administrative review, Commerce intends to issue 
assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date 
of publication of this notice in the Federal Register. For the 
remaining companies under review, Commerce intends to issue assessment 
instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of 
publication of the final results of this review in the Federal 
Register. If a timely summons is filed at the U.S. Court of 
International Trade, the assessment instructions will direct CBP not to 
liquidate relevant entries until the time for parties to file a request 
for a statutory injunction has expired (i.e., within 90 days of 
publication).
    If we continue to find in the final results no shipments for the 
companies identified in the ``Preliminary Determination of No 
Shipments'' section above, Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate any 
suspended entries of subject merchandise that entered under those 
companies' case numbers at the Vietnam-wide rate.\23\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \23\ See NME AD Assessment.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the final results, if we continue to treat the 117 companies 
identified in Appendix III as part of the Vietnam-wide entity, we will 
instruct CBP to apply an ad valorem assessment rate of 25.76 percent to 
all entries of subject merchandise during the POR which were produced 
and/or exported by those companies. The final results of this review 
shall be the basis for the assessment of antidumping duties on entries 
of merchandise covered by the final results of this review and for 
future deposits of estimated duties, where applicable.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon 
publication of the final results of this administrative review for 
shipments of the subject merchandise from Vietnam entered, or withdrawn 
from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date, as 
provided by sections 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) for all Vietnam 
exporters of subject merchandise that have not been found to be 
entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the existing 
rate for the Vietnam-wide entity of 25.76 percent; and (2) for all non-
Vietnam exporters of subject merchandise which have not received their 
own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to the 
Vietnam exporter that supplied that non-Vietnam exporter. These cash 
deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until 
further notice.

Final Results of Review

    Unless otherwise extended, Commerce intends to issue the final 
results of this administrative review, including the results of its 
analysis of issues raised by the parties in the written comments, 
within 120 days of publication of these preliminary results in the 
Federal Register, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 
CFR 351.213(h)(1).

Notification to Importers

    This notice also serves as a preliminary 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 Commerce's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties. This determination is issued 
and published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1)(B) and 777(i)(1) of 
the Act and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).

Notification to Interested Parties

    These preliminary results are issued and published in accordance 
with sections 751(a)(1)(B) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.221(b)(4).

    Dated: October 30, 2023.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.

Appendix I--Scope of the Order

    The scope of the Order includes certain frozen warmwater shrimp 
and prawns, whether wild-caught (ocean harvested) or farm-raised 
(produced by aquaculture), head-on or head-off, shell-on or peeled, 
tail-on or tail-off,\24\ deveined or not deveined, cooked or raw, or 
otherwise processed in frozen form.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \24\ ``Tails'' in this context means the tail fan, which 
includes the telson and the uropods.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The frozen warmwater shrimp and prawn products included in the 
scope of the Order, regardless of definitions in the Harmonized 
Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), are products which are 
processed from warmwater shrimp and prawns through freezing and 
which are sold in any count-size.
    The products described above may be processed from any species 
of warmwater shrimp and prawns. Warmwater shrimp and prawns are 
generally classified in, but are not limited to, the Penaeidae 
family. Some examples of the farmed and wild-caught warmwater 
species include, but are not

[[Page 75553]]

limited to, white-leg shrimp (Penaeus vannemei), banana prawn 
(Penaeus merguiensis), fleshy prawn (Penaeus chinensis), giant river 
prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii), giant tiger prawn (Penaeus 
monodon), redspotted shrimp (Penaeus brasiliensis), southern brown 
shrimp (Penaeus subtilis), southern pink shrimp (Penaeus notialis), 
southern rough shrimp (Trachypenaeus curvirostris), southern white 
shrimp (Penaeus schmitti), blue shrimp (Penaeus stylirostris), 
western white shrimp (Penaeus occidentalis), and Indian white prawn 
(Penaeus indicus).
    Frozen shrimp and prawns that are packed with marinade, spices 
or sauce are included in the scope of the Order. In addition, food 
preparations, which are not ``prepared meals,'' that contain more 
than 20 percent by weight of shrimp or prawn are also included in 
the scope of the Order.
    Excluded from the scope are: (1) breaded shrimp and prawns 
(HTSUS subheading 1605.20.10.20); (2) shrimp and prawns generally 
classified in the Pandalidae family and commonly referred to as 
coldwater shrimp, in any state of processing; (3) fresh shrimp and 
prawns whether shell-on or peeled (HTSUS subheadings 0306.23.00.20 
and 0306.23.00.40); (4) shrimp and prawns in prepared meals (HTSUS 
subheading 1605.20.05.10); (5) dried shrimp and prawns; (6) canned 
warmwater shrimp and prawns (HTSUS subheading 1605.20.10.40); and 
(7) certain battered shrimp. Battered shrimp is a shrimp-based 
product: (1) that is produced from fresh (or thawed-from-frozen) and 
peeled shrimp; (2) to which a ``dusting'' layer of rice or wheat 
flour of at least 95 percent purity has been applied; (3) with the 
entire surface of the shrimp flesh thoroughly and evenly coated with 
the flour; (4) with the non-shrimp content of the end product 
constituting between four and 10 percent of the product's total 
weight after being dusted, but prior to being frozen; and (5) that 
is subjected to individually quick frozen (IQF) freezing immediately 
after application of the dusting layer. When dusted in accordance 
with the definition of dusting above, the battered shrimp product is 
also coated with a wet viscous layer containing egg and/or milk, and 
par-fried.
    The products covered by this Order are currently classified 
under the following HTSUS subheadings: 0306.17.0004, 0306.17.0005, 
0306.17.0007, 0306.17.0008, 0306.17.0010, 0306.17.0011, 
0306.17.0013, 0306.17.0014, 0306.17.0016, 0306.17.0017, 
0306.17.0019, 0306.17.0020, 0306.17.0022, 0306.17.0023, 
0306.17.0025, 0306.17.0026, 0306.17.0028, 0306.17.0029, 
0306.17.0041, 0306.17.0042, 1605.21.10.30, and 1605.29.10.10. These 
HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and for customs 
purposes only and are not dispositive, but rather the written 
description of the scope of this Order is dispositive.\25\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \25\ On April 26, 2011, Commerce amended the antidumping duty 
order to include dusted shrimp, pursuant to the U.S. Court of 
International Trade decision in Ad Hoc Shrimp Trade Action Committee 
v. United States, 703 F. Supp. 2d 1330 (CIT 2010) and the U.S. 
International Trade Commission determination, which found the 
domestic like product to include dusted shrimp. See Certain Frozen 
Warmwater Shrimp from Brazil, India, the People's Republic of China, 
Thailand, and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam: Amended Antidumping 
Duty Orders in Accordance with Final Court Decision, 76 FR 23277
