October 2024, question 19

Echo experienced high demand in the U.S. for its paper products and could not manufacture quickly enough to meet its customers’ demands. Echo imported into Canada uncoated paper product like the paper manufactured by Echo from a manufacturer in Australia. Echo relabeled the boxes from the Australian manufacturer to show Echo’s information and exported the paper to the U.S. NBB filed the entry/entry summary as if Echo manufactured the paper. During a routine warehouse inspection, sixty (60) days after the date of import, a CBP Officer and a CBP Import Specialist see the country of origin marking of Australia and research the entry number. The Import Specialist rejects the entry type 01 consumption entry for failure to report and pay antidumping (AD) duties. The rejection puts the entry summary into Trade control status. How and when can NBB best respond on behalf of Echo?

1. Within two days of the entry summary rejection, NBB will respond to CBP that the rejection is untimely because the entry summary was in paid status and request that the entry be placed back in the liquidation cycle.
2. Within two days of the entry summary rejection, NBB will refile the entry as an entry type 03 antidumping entry specifying the correct AD case number, correcting the country of origin to Australia, and submiting a supplemental payment for the additional AD duties.
3. Within 10 days of the entry summary rejection, NBB will request that CBP issue a CBP Form 29 Rate Advance and provide an additional 20 days to submit the AD duties.
4. Three hundred days from the date of entry, NBB will file a post-summary correction (PSC) to change the entry type from 01 to 03, update the country of origin, and add the correct AD case number, and request accelerated liquidation with a bill for the additional AD duties due.
