Agreement Suspending the Antidumping Duty Investigation on Sugar From Mexico: Final Results of the 2022-2023 Administrative Review

Commerce Department, International Trade Administration

Abstract

The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) determines that the Agreement Suspending the Antidumping Duty Investigation on Sugar from Mexico, as amended (AD Agreement) met the statutory requirements during the period of review (POR) from December 1, 2022, through November 30, 2023. Commerce also determines that the respondents selected for individual examination, Azucarera San Jose De Abajo S.A. (San Jose) and Santa Rosalia de la Chontalpa, S.A. de C.V., and its affiliates (Santa Rosalia; collectively, Grupo BSM), were generally in compliance with the terms of the AD Agreement during the POR. However, we determine that Grupo BSM did not comply with the requirement to eliminate at least 85 percent of the dumping found in the investigation during the POR. Furthermore, we consider the respondents' noncompliant behavior to be serious and in need of remediation, and we will implement certain steps to address the noncompliance.
