                Period of Investigation
                 The period of investigation is October 1, 2018 through March 31,
                2019.
                Scope of the Investigation
                 The scope of the investigation covers ceramic tile from China. For
                a complete description of the scope of the investigation, see Appendix
                I.
                Scope Comments
                 On September 6, 2019, Commerce issued a Preliminary Scope Decision
                Memorandum.\4\ Several interested parties submitted case and rebuttal
                [[Page 19426]]
                briefs concerning the scope of this investigation. For a summary of the
                product coverage comments and rebuttal comments submitted to the record

                of all comments timely received, see the Final Scope Decision
                Memorandum.\5\ Based on the comments received, Commerce is not
                modifying the scope language as it appeared in the Preliminary
                Determination. The scope in Appendix I remains unchanged from that

                Analysis of Comments Received
                 All issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs by parties in
                this investigation are discussed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum.
                A list of the issues that parties raised in the Issues and Decision
                Memorandum is attached to this notice as Appendix II.
                Verification
                 As provided in section 782(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
                (the Act), Commerce conducted verification of the information submitted
                by Belite for use in the final determination. We used standard
                verification procedures, including an examination of relevant
                accounting records and original source documents provided by Belite.\6\
                We did not conduct verification of Foshan Sanfi because it withdrew
                from participation in verification.\7\
                ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
                 \6\ See Memorandum, ``Verification of the Questionnaire
                Responses of Belite Ceramics (Anyang) Co., Ltd., in the Antidumping
                Investigation of Ceramic Tile from the People's Republic of China,''
                dated January 6, 2020.
                 \7\ See Foshan Sanfi's Letter, ``Ceramic Tile from the People's
                Republic of China--Notice of Intention Not to Participate in
                Verification,'' dated November 22, 2019.
                ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
                Adverse Facts Available (AFA)
                 For the reasons explained in the Preliminary Determination, we
                continue to find that the use of AFA, pursuant to sections 776(a) and
                (b) of the Act, is warranted in determining the rate for the China-wide
                entity.\8\ In selecting the AFA rate for the China-wide entity,
                Commerce's practice is to select a rate that is sufficiently adverse to
                ensure that the uncooperative party does not obtain a more favorable
                result by failing to cooperate than if it had fully cooperated.\9\ For
                the final determination, we are assigning the China-wide entity, as
                AFA, the rate of 356.02 percent, which is the highest petition
                rate.\10\

                27, 2004), unchanged in Notice of Final Determination of Sales at

                ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
                Critical Circumstances
                 As explained in the Issues and Decision Memorandum, we find that
                critical circumstances exist for imports of ceramic tile from the
                China-wide entity pursuant to sections 735(a)(3)(A) and (B) of the Act
                and 19 CFR 351.206. With respect to the separate rate companies, we
                continue to find that the U.S. Census Bureau data provided by the
                petitioner in its critical circumstances allegation \11\ does not show
                that imports of subject merchandise were massive during a relatively
                short period, and that critical circumstances do not exist for imports
                of ceramic tile from the separate rate companies pursuant to sections
                735(a)(3)(A) and (B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.206.
                ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
                 \11\ See Preliminary Determination PDM at ``Critical
                Circumstances.''
                ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
                Separate Rates
                 Generally, Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, which
                provides instructions for calculating the all-others rate in a market
                economy antidumping duty (AD) investigation, for guidance when
                calculating the rate for separate rate respondents that we did not
                individually examine in a non-market economy AD investigation. Section
                735(c)(5)(A) of the Act states that the estimated all-others rate shall
                be an amount equal to the weighted average of the estimated weighted
                average dumping margins established for exporters and producers
                individually investigated, excluding any margins that are zero, de
                minimis, or determined entirely on the basis of facts available.\12\
                ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
                 \12\ See, e.g., Ball Bearings and Parts Thereof from France,
                Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom: Final Results of
                Antidumping Duty Administrative Reviews and Rescission of Reviews in
                Part, 73 FR 52823, 52824 (September 11, 2008), and accompanying
                Issues and Decision Memorandum (IDM) at Comment 16.
                ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
                 As discussed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum,\13\ Belite and
                Foshan Sanfi have not received a separate rate for the final
                determination and, thus, are part of the China-wide entity. As such, we
                have assigned the average of the rates found in the Petition \14\ as
                the rate for non-individually examined companies that have qualified
                for a separate rate.\15\

                Antidumping Duties on Imports of Ceramic Tile from the People's

                Petition Supplement at Exhibit II-21.

                Final Determination
                 The final estimated weighted-average dumping margins are as

                Continuation of Suspension of Liquidation
                 In accordance with section 735(c)(1)(B) of the Act, we will
                instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to continue to
                suspend liquidation of all entries of ceramic tile from China, as
                described in the ``Scope of the Investigation'' section, entered, or
                withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after November 14,
                2019, the date of publication of the Preliminary Determination notice
                in the Federal Register.
                 Pursuant to section 735(c)(1)(B)(ii) of the Act, Commerce will
                instruct CBP to require a cash deposit \17\ equal to the weighted-
                average amount by which normal value exceeds U.S. price as follows: (1)
                The cash deposit rate for the exporter/producer combination listed in
                the table above will be the rate identified for that combination in the
                table; (2) for all combinations of China exporters/producers of subject
                merchandise that have not received their own separate rate above, the
                cash-deposit rate will be the cash deposit rate established for the
                China-wide entity; and (3) for all non-China exporters of the subject
                merchandise which have not received their own separate rate above, the
                cash-deposit rate will be the cash deposit rate applicable to the China
                exporter/producer combination that supplied that non-China exporter.
                These suspension of liquidation instructions will remain in effect
                until further notice.

                 We normally adjust AD cash deposit rates by the amount of export
                subsidies, where appropriate. In the companion countervailing duty
                (CVD) investigation we found that an export subsidy adjustment of 25.33
                percent to the cash deposit rate is warranted, because this is the
                export subsidy rate included in the CVD all-others rate to which the
                separate-rate companies are subject. As part of our determination in
                this final determination to apply AFA to the China-wide entity,
                Commerce has adjusted the China-wide entity's AD cash deposit rate by
                the lowest export subsidy rate determined for any party in the
                companion CVD proceeding, i.e., 25.33 percent.\18\

                International Trade Commission (ITC) Notification
                 In accordance with section 735(d) of the Act, we will notify the
                ITC of the final affirmative determination of sales at LTFV. As
                Commerce's final determination is affirmative, in accordance with
                section 735(b)(2) of the Act, the ITC will determine, within 45 days,
                whether the domestic industry in the United States is materially
                injured, or threatened with material injury, by reason of imports of
                ceramic tile from China, or sales (or the likelihood of sales) for
                importation, of ceramic tile from China. If the ITC determines that
                such injury does not exist, this proceeding will be terminated, and all
                securities posted will be refunded or canceled. If the ITC determines
                that such injury does exist, Commerce will issue an AD order directing
                CBP to assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, duties on all
                imports of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
                warehouse, for consumption on or after the effective date of the
                suspension of liquidation.
                Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders (APO)
                 In the event that the ITC issues a final negative injury
                determination, this notice will serve as the only reminder to parties
                subject to the APO of their responsibility concerning the destruction
                of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19
                CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely written notification of the return/
                destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order
                is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms
                of an APO is a violation which is subject to sanction.
                Notification to Importers
                 This notice also serves as an initial reminder to importers of
                their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a certificate
                regarding the reimbursement of AD duties prior to liquidation. Failure
                to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce's presumption
                that reimbursement of AD duties occurred and the subsequent assessment
                of doubled AD duties.
                Notification to Interested Parties
                 This determination is issued and published in accordance with
                sections 735(d) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.210(c). Note

                Appendix I--Scope of the Investigation
                 The merchandise covered by this investigation is ceramic
                flooring tile, wall tile, paving tile, hearth tile, porcelain tile,
                mosaic tile, flags, finishing tile, and the like (hereinafter
                ceramic tile). Ceramic tiles are articles containing a mixture of
                minerals including clay (generally hydrous silicates of alumina or
                magnesium) that are fired so the raw materials are fused to produce
                a finished good that is less than 3.2 cm in actual thickness. All
                ceramic tile is subject to the scope regardless of end use, surface
                area, and weight, regardless of whether the tile is glazed or
                unglazed, regardless of the water absorption coefficient by weight,
                regardless of the extent of vitrification, and regardless of whether
                or not the tile is on a backing. Subject merchandise includes
                ceramic tile with decorative features that may in spots exceed 3.2
                cm in thickness and includes ceramic tile ``slabs'' or ``panels''
                (tiles that are larger than 1 meter\2\ (11 ft.\2\)).
                 Subject merchandise includes ceramic tile that undergoes minor
                processing in a third country prior to importation into the United
                States. Similarly, subject merchandise includes ceramic tile
                produced that undergoes minor processing after importation into the
                United States. Such minor processing includes, but is not limited
                to, one or more of the following: Beveling, cutting, trimming,
                staining, painting, polishing, finishing, additional firing, or any
                other processing that would otherwise not remove the merchandise
                from the scope of the investigation if performed in the country of
                manufacture of the in-scope product.
                 Subject merchandise is currently classified in the Harmonized
                Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) under the following
