The scope of this order covers large liquid dielectric power transformers (LPTs) having a top power handling capacity greater than or equal to 60,000 kilovolt amperes (60 megavolt amperes), whether assembled or unassembled, complete or incomplete. Incomplete LPTs are subassemblies consisting of the active part and any other parts attached to, imported with or invoiced with the active parts of LPTs. The ``active part'' of the transformer consists of one or more of the following when attached to or otherwise assembled with one another: The steel core or shell, the windings, electrical insulation between the windings, the mechanical frame for an LPT. The product definition encompasses all such LPTs regardless of name designation, including but not limited to step-up transformers, step- down transformers, autotransformers, interconnection transformers, voltage regulator transformers, rectifier transformers, and power rectifier transformers. The LPTs subject to this order are currently classifiable under subheadings 8504.23.0040, 8504.23.0080 and 8504.90.9540 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope of this order is dispositive. Ministerial Error Section 751(h) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.224(f) define a ``ministerial error'' as an error ``in addition, subtraction, or other arithmetic function, clerical error resulting from inaccurate copying, duplication, or the like, and any other similar type of unintentional error which the Secretary considers ministerial.'' The petitioners argue that Commerce failed to fully implement certain changes that the record indicates, and Commerce recognized, were necessary for one U.S. sale, to account for the proper reporting of service-related revenues. We agree with the petitioners and, therefore, we have corrected the error. As a result, the weighted- average dumping margin for Hyosung changes from 7.92 percent to 9.09 percent. Furthermore, the rate for the respondents not selected for individual examination, which is based on the margin calculated for Hyosung, also changes from 7.92 percent to 9.09 percent. See Ministerial Error Memorandum at 3. The rate applied to the non-selected companies is based on Hyosung's dumping margin for the period August 1, 2019, through July 31, 2020, as no other company was selected for review. See Final Results at 12932. Amended Final Results of Review Commerce determines that the following amended weighted-average dumping margins exist for the period August 1, 2019, through July 31, 2020: Estimated weighted- average Producer/exporter dumping margin (percent) Hyosung Heavy Industries Corporation 9.09 Hyundai Electric & Energy Systems Co., Ltd 9.09 Iljin Electric Co., Ltd 9.09 Iljin 9.09 Disclosure We will disclose the calculation memorandum used in our analysis to parties to this segment of the proceeding within five days of the date of the publication of these amended final results pursuant to 19 CFR 351.224(b). Assessment Rate Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), Commerce has determined, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance with these amended final results of the administrative review. In accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), Hyosung reported the entered value of its U.S. sales such that we calculated importer- specific ad valorem antidumping duties assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for the examined sales for each importer to the total entered value of the sales for each importer. Where an importer-specific antidumping duties assessment rate is zero or de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' will apply to entries of subject merchandise during the period of review produced by companies included in these final results of review for which the reviewed companies did not know that the merchandise they sold to the intermediary (e.g., a reseller, trading company, or exporter) was destined for the United States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all-others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction. See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003). For the companies which were not selected for individual examination, we will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties at an ad valorem assessment rate equal to the weighted-average dumping margins determined in these amended final results. The amended final results of this review shall be the basis for the assessment of antidumping duties on entries of merchandise covered by the amended final results of this review and for future deposits of estimated duties, where applicable. Consistent with its recent notice, Commerce intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions directly to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of the amended final results of this review in the Federal Register.

As of dataset vintage 2026-10-16T16:09:24Z, yes: importers entering covered goods post a cash deposit at the current rate until Commerce's next administrative review publishes revised margins in the Federal Register. Deposit rates can change every review cycle, so confirm the latest Federal Register notice before you quote a figure to your customs broker.
These HTS headings are recorded in the case linkage: 8504.23.00, 8504.90.20, 8504.90.41, 8504.90.65, 8504.90.75, 8504.90.96. Confirm the exact ten-digit code against the published scope language, because product descriptions rather than codes alone define the legal boundary of the order, and scope rulings occasionally widen or narrow which lines inherit the deposit obligation.
