SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On January 8, 2002, we published the Order on certain folding gift 
boxes from China.\1\ On February 1, 2018, we published the notice of 
initiation of the third sunset review of the Order, pursuant to section 
751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).\2\ Because 
domestic interested parties submitted a complete and adequate response, 
but respondent interested parties did not participate in the sunset 
review, we conducted the sunset review on an expedited basis, pursuant 
to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2).\3\ As a result of this expedited sunset 
review, we determined that revocation of the Order would likely lead to 
a continuation or recurrence of dumping and, therefore, notified the 
ITC of the magnitude of the margins of dumping likely to prevail should 
the order be revoked, pursuant to sections 751(c)(1) and 752(c) of the 
Act.\4\ On June 29, 2018, the ITC published its determination, pursuant 
to section 751(c) of the Act, that revocation of the Order would likely 
lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in 
the United States within a reasonably foreseeable time.\5\

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

Scope of the Order

    The products covered by the Order are certain folding gift boxes. 
Folding gift boxes are a type of folding or knock-down carton 
manufactured from paper or paperboard. Folding gift boxes are produced 
from a variety of recycled and virgin paper or paperboard materials, 
including, but not limited to, clay-coated paper or paperboard and 
kraft (bleached or unbleached) paper or paperboard. The scope of the 
Order excludes gift boxes manufactured from paper or paperboard of a 
thickness of more than 0.8 millimeters, corrugated paperboard, or paper 
mache. The scope also excludes those gift boxes for which no side of 
the box, when assembled, is at least nine inches in length.
    Folding gift boxes included in the scope are typically decorated 
with a holiday motif using various processes, including printing, 
embossing, debossing, and foil stamping, but may also be plain white or 
printed with a single color. The subject merchandise includes folding 
gift boxes, with or without handles, whether finished or unfinished, 
and whether in one-piece or multi-piece configuration. One-piece gift 
boxes are die-cut or otherwise formed so that the top, bottom, and 
sides form a single, contiguous unit. Two-piece gift boxes are those 
with a folded bottom and a folded top as separate pieces. Folding gift 
boxes are generally packaged in shrink-wrap, cellophane, or other 
packaging materials, in single or multi-box packs for sale to the 
retail customer. The scope excludes folding gift boxes that have a 
retailer's name, logo, trademark or similar company information printed 
prominently on the box's top exterior (such folding gift boxes are 
often known as ``not-for-resale'' gift boxes or ``give-away'' gift 
boxes and may be provided by department and specialty stores at no 
charge to their retail customers). The scope of the Order also excludes 
folding gift boxes where both the outside of the box is a single color 
and the box is not packaged in shrink-wrap, cellophane, other resin-
based packaging films, or paperboard.
    Imports of the subject merchandise are classified under Harmonized 
Tariff Schedules of the United States (HTSUS) subheadings 4819.20.0040 
and 4819.50.4060. These subheadings also cover products that are 
outside the scope of the Order. Furthermore, although the HTSUS 
subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, our 
written description of the scope of the Order is dispositive.

Continuation of the Order

    As a result of the determinations by Commerce and the ITC that 
revocation of the Order would likely lead to a continuation or 
recurrence of dumping and material injury to an industry in the United 
States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(a), 
Commerce hereby orders the continuation of the Order. U.S. Customs and 
Border Protection will continue to collect cash deposits at the rates 
in effect at the time of entry for all imports of subject merchandise.
    The effective date of the continuation of the Order will be the 
date of publication in the Federal Register of this notice of 
continuation. Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of the Act, Commerce 
intends to initiate the next five-year review of this order not later 
than 30 days prior to the fifth anniversary of the effective date of 
continuation notice.
    This five-year (sunset) review and this notice are in accordance 
with sections 751(c) and 751(d)(2) of the Act and published pursuant to 
section 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(f)(4).

    Dated: July 5, 2018.

Deputy Assistant Secretary, for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations, performing the non-exclusive functions and duties of the,
