Interested parties that were not accepted for preliminary purposes
Any companies that were found to be deficient by ITAC would now need to pay the residual duty applicable to their country (this is the higher duty for each country). Any such companies can now submit their updated and corrected information within 2 weeks of the date of the preliminary report (likely to be the 7th), taking their likely submission date to the 21st July. Any companies not resolving their outstanding issues by the due date will be removed from the investigation, so this really is a last chance for companies that have not been accepted for preliminary purposes.
