The products covered by these orders are melamine from India. For a complete description of the scope of the orders, see the appendix to this notice. Antidumping Duty Order On March 31, 2025, in accordance with section 735(d) of the Act, the ITC notified Commerce of its final determination that an industry in the United States is materially injured within the meaning of section 735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act by reason of imports of melamine that are sold in the United States at less than fair value. Therefore, in accordance with sections 735(c)(2) and 736 of the Act, Commerce is issuing this AD order. Because the ITC determined that imports of melamine from India are materially injuring a U.S. industry, unliquidated entries of such merchandise from India, entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, are subject to the assessment of antidumping duties. Therefore, in accordance with section 736(a)(1) of the Act, Commerce will direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, antidumping duties equal to the amount by which the normal value of the merchandise exceeds the export price (or constructed export price) of the merchandise, for all relevant entries of melamine from India. Antidumping duties will be assessed on unliquidated entries of melamine from India entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after September 24, 2024, the date of publication of the AD Preliminary Determination but will not include entries occurring after the expiration of the provisional measures period and before publication of the ITC's final injury determination, as further described below. See Melamine from India: Preliminary Affirmative Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and Affirmative Determination of Critical Circumstances, in Part, 89 FR 77832 (September 24, 2024) (AD Preliminary Determination). Critical Circumstances--AD With respect to the ITC's negative critical circumstances determination on imports of melamine from India, we will instruct CBP to lift the suspension of liquidation and to refund all cash deposits for estimated antidumping duties with respect to entries of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after June 26, 2024 (i.e., 90 days prior to the date of the publication of the AD Preliminary Determination), but before September 24, 2024, the date of publication of the AD Preliminary Determination. Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposits--AD Commerce intends to instruct CBP to reinstitute the suspension of liquidation of melamine from India, effective on the date of publication of the ITC Final Determination in the Federal Register, and to assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, antidumping duties on each entry of subject merchandise based on the estimated weighted- average dumping margins indicated in the table below. These instructions suspending liquidation will remain in effect until further notice. Commerce also intends to instruct CBP to require cash deposits equal to the estimated weighted-average dumping margins indicated in the table below. Accordingly, effective on the date of publication in the Federal Register of the notice of the ITC's final affirmative injury determination, CBP will require, at the same time as importers would normally deposit estimated customs duties on this subject merchandise, a cash deposit equal to the rates listed in the table below. The all-others rate applies to all producers and exporters not specifically listed below, as appropriate. Estimated Weighted-Average Dumping Margins The estimated weighted-average dumping margins are as follows: Cash deposit rate Weighted-average (adjusted for Exporter or producer dumping margin subsidy offset(s)) (percent) (percent) Gujarat State Fertilizers * 632.74 626.27 and Chemicals Limited All Others 513.28 506.81 * Rate based on facts available with adverse inferences. Provisional Measures--AD Section 733(d) of the Act states that suspension of liquidation pursuant to an affirmative preliminary determination may not remain in effect for more than four months, except where exporters representing a significant proportion of exports of the subject merchandise request that Commerce extend the four-month period to no more than six months. Commerce published the AD Preliminary Determination on September 24, 2024. On October 23, 2024, Commerce extended the provisional measures from a four-month period to a period of not more than six months. Adjusted for export subsidies of 6.47 percent (comprised of 2.69 percent for the RoDTEP program and 3.78 percent for the DDB program) for GSFC and all others. See CVD Final Determination. See Melamine from India: Postponement of Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value Investigation, 89 FR 84533 (October 23, 2024). The provisional measures period, beginning on the date of publication of the AD Preliminary Determination, ended on March 22, 2025.
