The WIIT Customs Committee
Invites you to a Brown Bag Session on:



Timeliness and Deemed Liquidation

Featuring


William Kovatch, Esq.
Senior Attorney
Office of the Chief Counsel for Import Administration
U.S. Department of Commerce

Craig Lewis, Esq.
Partner, Hogan & Hartson, LLP
International Trade Practice Group


Having successfully completed an antidumping duty or countervailing duty administrative review before the U.S. Department of Commerce ("USDOC"), or having concluded an appeal of such a determination to the courts or a NAFTA binational panel, companies/importers are now looking forward to timely liquidation of their merchandise by U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("CBP"). What steps will the USDOC follow to ensure proper and timely liquidation? How does CBP administer USDOC instructions? What are the pitfalls for the unwary importer? Will failure to timely liquidate the entries result in an adverse "deemed liquidation" finding by CBP? What steps should the prudent importer take to minimize her risk? This hands-on presentation, conducted by distinguished leading experts in the field of international trade regulation, will provide attendees with a comprehensive discussion of the impact of a USDOC antidumping order on the liquidation of entries subject to antidumping and countervailing duties.


When:
Friday, May 9, 2008

Time: 12:00 pm to 1:30 pm.

Where: Hogan & Hartson, LLP
