Based on the record of the investigation, CBP found there was substantial evidence that the Importers entered covered merchandise from China that was transshipped through various countries. 

In light of CBP’s determination that the Importers entered covered merchandise into the customs territory of the United States through evasion, and pursuant to its authorities under EAPA, CBP will: 

• CBP will suspend or continue to suspend the entries covered by this investigation, until instructed to liquidate. 
• For those entries previously extended in accordance with Interim Measures, CBP will rate adjust and change those entries to type 03 and continue suspension until instructed to liquidate these entries. 
• CBP will continue to evaluate the Importers’ continuous bonds in accordance with CBP’s policies. 

These actions do not preclude CBP from taking additional enforcement measures as it determines appropriate under its EAPA or other legal authorities, which include pursuing civil penalties or investigations into criminal violations.
