Scope of the Order
The product covered by the Order is WBF, subject to certain exceptions. For a complete description of the scope of the Order, see Appendix I.
Methodology
[top] Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.213.
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 a party that requested a review, withdraws its request within 90 days of the date of publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review in the Federal Register . Interested parties timely withdrew all review requests for 25 companies/company groupings for which Commerce initiated this review. Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce is rescinding this review of the Order with respect to all the companies/company groupings listed in appendix II.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(a), "{g}enerally, the amount of duties to be assessed is determined in a review of the order covering a discrete period of time." Thus, normally, upon completion of an administrative review, suspended entries of subject merchandise are liquidated at the antidumping duty assessment rate calculated for the review period. 9 Therefore, in order to apply the final antidumping duty liability that was determined in an administrative review for a particular company, there must be at least one suspended entry of that company's subject merchandise that Commerce can instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to liquidate at the antidumping duty assessment rate calculated for the review period. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), Commerce may rescind an administrative review if it concludes that, during the period covered by the review, there were no entries, exports, or sales of the subject merchandise, as the case may be. 10

10 ? See, e.g., Dioctyl Terephthalate from the Republic of Korea: Rescission of Antidumping Administrative Review; 2021-2022, 88 FR 24758 (April 24, 2023); see also Certain Carbon and Alloy Steel Cut- to Length Plate from the Federal Republic of Germany: Recission of Antidumping Administrative Review; 2020-2021, 88 FR 4157 (January 24, 2023).
Because the entry data that we obtained from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) showed no suspended entries of subject merchandise from the nine companies identified in Appendix III, on January 6, 2025, we notified parties of our intent to rescind this administrative review with respect to those companies. 11 No one commented on our intent to rescind this review with respect to these companies. Therefore, in the absence of any suspended entries of subject merchandise during the POR from the companies listed in Appendix III, we are rescinding this administrative review with respect to these companies, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3).
Footnotes:
11 ? See Memorandum, "Notice of Intent to Rescind Review, In Part," dated January 6, 2025.
Separate Rates
In the Initiation Notice, we informed parties that all firms for which a non-market economy (NME) review was initiated that wished to qualify for separate rate status must complete, as appropriate, either a separate rate application or a separate rate certification. 12 While Shenzhen New Fudu Furniture Co., Ltd. claimed that it "made no exports, sales, shipments, or entries of any subject merchandise . . . during the . . . period of review,"? 13 record evidence contradicts this claim, namely CBP entry data. 14 Shenzhen New Fudu Furniture Co., Ltd. failed to comment on this evidence or provide a separate rate application or certification. Therefore, Commerce preliminarily determines that New Fudu Furniture Co., Ltd. failed to demonstrate that it qualifies for separate rate status, and thus is part of the China-wide entity.
Footnotes:
12 ? See Initiation Notice, 89 FR at 15827.
13 ? See Shenzhen New Fudu Furniture Co. Ltd.'s No Shipments Letter.
14 ? See Memorandum, "No Shipment Inquiry" dated September 19, 2024; see also Memorandum, "Release of U.S. Customs and Border Patrol Entry Summary Documentation," dated November 27, 2024.
Additionally, CBP entry data for the POR show no entries of subject merchandise from the following seven companies for which Commerce initiated this review and which do not have a separate rate: (1) Dorbest Ltd.; (2) Fine Furniture (Shanghai) Ltd.; (3) Rui Feng Lumber Development Co., Ltd.; (4) Rui Feng Woodwork Co., Ltd.; (5) Wanvog Furniture (Kunshan) Co., Ltd.; (6) Yeh Brothers World Trade Inc.; and (7) Zhongshan Fookyik Furniture Co., Ltd.
Because there were no entries of subject merchandise from these companies during the POR for Commerce to examine in this administrative review, and these companies did not have a separate rate, these companies remain in the China-wide entity.
Commerce's policy regarding conditional review of the China-wide entity applies to this administrative review. 15 Under this policy, the China-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 China-wide entity, the entity is not under review and the weighted-average dumping margin assigned to the China-wide entity is not subject to change as a result of this administrative review.

Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to parties to the proceeding the calculations that it performed in connection with a preliminary results of review within five days of any public announcement or, if there is no public announcement, within five days of the date of publication of the notice of preliminary results of review in the Federal Register , in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). However, because Commerce did not calculate any dumping margins in this review, there are no calculations to disclose.
Public Comment
Case briefs or other written comments may be submitted to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c)(1)(ii), we have modified the deadline for interested parties to submit case briefs to Commerce to no later than 21 days after the date of the publication of this notice. 16 Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues raised in the case briefs, may be filed not later than five days after the date for filing case briefs. 17 Interested parties who submit case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this review must submit: (1) a table of contents listing each issue; and (2) a table of authorities. 18

[top] As provided under 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2), in prior proceedings we have encouraged interested parties to provide an executive summary of their brief that should be limited to five pages total, including footnotes.

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), interested parties who wish to request a hearing must submit a written request to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, filed electronically via ACCESS. Requests should contain: (1) the requesting party's name, address, and telephone number; (2) the number of individuals associated with the requesting party that will attend the hearing and whether any of those individuals is a foreign national; and (3) a list of the issues the party intends to discuss at the hearing. Issues raised in the hearing will be limited to those raised in the respective case briefs. If a request for a hearing is made, Commerce intends to hold the hearing at a date and time to be determined. An electronically filed hearing request must be received successfully in its entirety by Commerce's electronic records system, ACCESS, by 5 p.m. Eastern Time within 30 days after the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register .
Assessment Rate
Commerce will determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise covered by this review. 21 We will instruct CBP to liquidate POR entries of subject merchandise exported by the companies/company groupings for which we rescinded the review at the cash deposit rate required at the time of entry or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(l)(i). We will issue this instruction to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register .
Footnotes:
21 ? See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
If we do not alter these preliminary results of review, we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate entries of subject merchandise exported by the companies that failed to qualify for a separate rate at the China-wide entity rate. We will issue this instruction to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of the final results of this review in the Federal Register .
If a timely summons is filed at the U.S. Court of International Trade, the assessment instructions will direct CBP not to liquidate relevant entries until the time for parties to file a request for statutory injunction has expired ( i.e., within 90 days of publication).
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements for estimated antidumping duties will be effective for all shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of the notice of the final results of this administrative review in the Federal Register as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) for any previously investigated or reviewed China or non-China exporter that has a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the exporter's existing cash deposit rate; (2) for all China exporters of subject merchandise that do not have a separate rate, including those exporters that failed to establish their separate rate eligibility in this review, the cash deposit rate will be equal to the dumping margin assigned to the China-wide entity, which is 216.01 percent; and (3) for all non-China exporters of subject merchandise that do not have a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be equal to the dumping margin applicable to the China exporter(s) that supplied that non-China exporter. These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.
Final Results of Review
Unless otherwise extended, Commerce intends to issue the final results of this administrative review, which will include the results of its analysis of issues raised in case and rebuttal briefs, within 120 days of publication of these preliminary results of review in the Federal Register , pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.
Notification to Importers
This notice 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 this 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
We are issuing and publishing these preliminary results of review in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2) and 351.221(b)(4).
