Scope text

Legally operative description of covered merchandise from the Federal Register

The merchandise covered by these orders is all purified carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), sometimes also referred to as purified sodium CMC, polyanionic cellulose, or cellulose gum, which is a white to off-white, non-toxic, odorless, biodegradable powder, comprising sodium CMC that has been refined and purified to a minimum assay of 90 percent. Purified CMC does not include unpurified or crude CMC, CMC Fluidized Polymer Suspensions, and CMC that is cross-linked through heat treatment. Purified CMC is CMC that has undergone one or more purification operations which, at a minimum, reduce the remaining salt and other by-product portion of the product to less than ten percent.

Frequently asked questions

What is AD/CVD case A-405-803?

A-405-803 is a U.S. antidumping duty (AD) order on purified carboxymethylcellulose from Finland, issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce. It is part of the trade-remedy regime that levies cash deposits at entry on imports found to be sold below fair value (AD) or to benefit from foreign government subsidies (CVD).

What is the deposit rate for A-405-803?

The country-wide cash deposit rate for A-405-803 is 6.65%. This rate applies to importers of non-listed manufacturers/exporters from Finland. Individual exporters and producers may have lower (or higher) case-specific rates from Commerce administrative reviews — see the manufacturer rates linked from this page where available.

When did A-405-803 take effect, and is it still active?

A-405-803 took effect on August 26, 2015 and is currently in revoked status. Revoked orders no longer require cash deposits — the order is closed. Importers should still verify the revocation date and any continuation/sunset history before relying on this for an entry.

How do I check if my shipment falls within the scope of A-405-803?

Two factors determine scope: (1) the product's HTS code(s) and physical characteristics — covered codes are listed on this page (1 flagged); and (2) the product's country of origin — this order applies to imports from Finland. The order's scope text — also on this page — is the legally binding description. When borderline cases arise, importers can request a formal scope ruling from Commerce. Tandom's lookup tool matches your HTS + origin against every active order in seconds.

What HTS codes are covered by A-405-803?

A-405-803 flags 1 HTS code in Tandom's catalog. The full list is shown on this page. HTS coverage alone does not guarantee scope — physical-characteristic exclusions in the scope text may carve out specific products.

Where is the official Federal Register notice for A-405-803?

The official Federal Register citation for A-405-803 is 2015-08-26 FR Doc. 2015-21046. The link is on this page; clicking it opens the canonical FR document on federalregister.gov, which carries the legally operative text — scope, rates, exclusions, and effective dates.
