SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On October 16, 2017, Commerce published in the Federal Register the 
notice of initiation of an administrative review of the antidumping 
duty (AD) order on frozen fish fillets from Vietnam.\1\ Commerce 
initiated a review with respect to 74 companies,\2\ and selected two of 
these companies, Hung Vuong Group (HVG) and NTSF Seafoods Joint Stock 
Company (NTSF), as mandatory respondents.\3\ On March 22, 2018, 
Commerce partially extended the deadline for issuing the preliminary 
results.\4\ On June 14, 2018, Commerce fully extended the preliminary 
results of review to September 4, 2018.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews, 82 FR 48051 (October 16, 2017) (Initiation 
Notice); see also Appendix I therein for the complete list of all 
companies upon which Commerce initiated an administrative review.
    \2\ Id.
    \3\ See Commerce Memorandums dated January 5, 2018 (HVG), and 
February 7, 2018 (NTSF).
    \4\ See Commerce Memorandum dated June 14, 2018.
    \5\ See Commerce Memorandum dated March 22, 2018.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scope of the Order

    The product covered by this review is certain frozen fish fillets 
from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. For a full description of the 
scope see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum dated concurrently with 
and hereby adopted by this notice.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Commerce Memorandum, ``Decision Memorandum for the 
Preliminary Results of the 2016-2017 Antidumping Duty Administrative 
Review: Certain Frozen Fish Fillets from the Socialist Republic of 
Vietnam,'' dated concurrently with this notice (Preliminary Decision 
Memorandum).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Partial Rescission of Administrative 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 a review withdraw the request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of the notice of initiation. Between December 26, 2017 and 
January 12, 2018, we received timely withdrawal of review requests for 
47 companies from the petitioners and self-requested companies. Of 
these 47 companies, 34 do not have any other outstanding review 
requests. Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce 
is rescinding this review of the AD order on certain frozen fish 
fillets from Vietnam with respect to these 34 companies.\7\ The review 
will continue with respect to the other firms for which a review was 
requested and initiated.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Appendix II for a full list of rescinded companies.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Preliminary Determination of No Shipments

    Based on the no-shipments letters filed by three companies, 
Commerce preliminarily determines that these companies had no shipments 
during the POR. For additional information regarding this 
determination, including a list of these companies, see the Preliminary 
Decision Memorandum. Consistent with our assessment practice in non-
market economy (NME) administrative reviews, Commerce is not rescinding 
this review for these companies, but intends to complete the review and 
issue appropriate instructions to CBP based on the final results of the 
review.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Non-Market Economy Antidumping Proceedings: Assessment 
of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694, 65694-95 (October 24, 2011) and 
the ``Assessment Rates'' section, below.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separate Rates

    Commerce preliminarily determines that information placed on the 
record by the mandatory respondents HVG and NTSF, as well as by the 
four other separate rate applicants, demonstrates that these companies 
are entitled to

[[Page 46480]]

separate rate status. See Preliminary Results of Review section below. 
For additional information, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.

Vietnam-Wide Entity

    Commerce's policy regarding conditional review of the Vietnam-wide 
entity applies to this administrative review.\9\ 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 
in this review, the entity is not under review and the weighted-average 
dumping margin determined for the Vietnam-wide entity is not subject to 
change (i.e., $2.39 per kilogram) as a result of this review.\10\ Aside 
from the companies discussed above, Commerce considers all other 
companies for which a review was requested to be part of the Vietnam-
wide entity. For additional information, see the Preliminary Decision 
Memorandum.

Methodology

    Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with sections 
751(a)(1)(B) and 751(a)(2)(A) of the Act. Constructed export prices and 
export prices have been calculated in accordance with section 772 of 
the Act. Because Vietnam is an NME country within the meaning of 
section 771(18) of the Act, normal value (NV) has been calculated in 
accordance with section 773(c) of the Act.
    For a full description of the methodology underlying our 
conclusions, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. The Preliminary 
Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically 
via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS). ACCESS is available to 
registered users at http://access.trade.gov and is available to all 
parties in the Central Records Unit, Room B8024 of the main Department 
of Commerce building. In addition, a complete version of the 
Preliminary Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly on the 
internet at http://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/. The signed Preliminary 
Decision Memorandum and the electronic versions of the Preliminary 
Decision Memorandum are identical in content.

                                                           (dollars per

Disclosure

    Commerce intends to disclose to interested parties the calculations 
performed in connection with these preliminary results within five days 
of its public announcement or, if there is no public announcement, 
within five days of the date of publication of this notice in 
accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).

Public Comment

    Case briefs or other written comments may be submitted to the 
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance no later than 30 
days after the date of publication of these preliminary results, unless 
the Secretary alters the time limit. Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues 
raised in case briefs, may be submitted no later than five days after 
the deadline date for case briefs.\11\ Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2) 
and (d)(2), parties who submit case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this 
administrative review are encouraged to submit with each argument: (1) 
A statement of the issue; (2) a brief summary of the argument; and (3) 
a table of authorities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ See 19 CFR 351.309; see also 19 CFR 351.303 (for general 
filing requirements).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), interested parties who wish to 
request a hearing, limited to issues raised in the case and rebuttal 
briefs, must submit a written request to the Assistant Secretary for 
Enforcement and Compliance, U.S. Department of Commerce, within 30 days 
after the date of publication of this notice. Requests should contain 
the party's name, address, and telephone number, the number of 
participants, whether any participant is a foreign national, and a list 
of the issues to be discussed. If a request for a hearing is made, 
Commerce intends to hold the hearing at the U.S. Department of 
Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230, at a time 
and date to be determined. Parties should confirm by telephone the 
date, time, and location of the hearing two days before the scheduled 
date.
    Commerce intends to issue the final results of this administrative 
review, which will include the results of our analysis of all issues 
raised in the case briefs, within 120 days of publication of these 
preliminary results in the Federal Register, pursuant to section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, unless extended.

Assessment Rates

    For those companies for which Commerce is rescinding this review, 
Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to 
assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries, consistent with 
19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).\12\ For these companies, antidumping duties shall 
be assessed at rates equal to the cash deposit of estimated antidumping 
duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for 
consumption, during the period August 1, 2016, through July 31, 2017, 
in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). The Department intends to 
issue appropriate assessment instruction to CBP 15 days after 
publication of this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See Appendix II.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Upon issuance of the final results, Commerce will determine, and 
CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered 
by this review.\13\ Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions 
to CBP 15 days after the publication date of the final results of this 
review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For any individually examined respondent whose weighted average 
dumping margin is not zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.50 percent) 
in the final results of this review, Commerce will calculate importer-
specific assessment rates on the basis of the ratio of the total amount 
of dumping calculated for the importer's examined sales to the total 
entered value of those sales, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). 
Where an importer-specific ad valorem rate is not zero or de minimis, 
Commerce will instruct CBP to collect the appropriate duties at the 
time of liquidation.\14\ Where either

[[Page 46481]]

a respondent's weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimis, 
or an importer-specific ad valorem assessment rate is zero or de 
minimis, Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate appropriate entries 
without regard to antidumping duties.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
    \15\ See 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon 
publication of the final results of this 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 the companies listed above 
that have a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be equal to the 
weighted-average dumping margin established in the final results of 
this review (except, if the rate is de minimis, then cash deposit rate 
will be zero); (2) for previously examined Vietnamese and non-
Vietnamese exporters not listed above that at the time of entry are 
eligible for a separate rate based on a prior completed segment of this 
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the existing 
exporter-specific cash deposit rate; (3) for all Vietnam exporters of 
subject merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a 
separate rate at the time of entry, the cash deposit rate will be that 
for the Vietnam-wide entity (i.e., $2.39 per kilogram); and (4) for all 
non-Vietnamese exporters of subject merchandise which at the time of 
entry are not eligible for a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will 
be the rate applicable to the Vietnam exporter that supplied that non-
Vietnam exporter. These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall 
remain in effect until further notice.

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 the POR. 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.

Notification to Interested Parties

    This preliminary determination is issued and published in 
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: September 4, 2018.
Gary Taverman,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations, performing the non-exclusive functions and duties of the 
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
