The following certification requirements will also apply:

• If an importer imports solar panels/modules that it claims do not contain solar cells that were produced in China/Taiwan, the importer is required to maintain an importer certification

• If a solar panel/module assembled in China/Taiwan contains solar cells manufactured in third countries using ingots, wafers, or partially produced solar cells manufactured in China/Taiwan, but the importer is unable to identify the total value of the panel/module subject to provisional measures, the Department intends to instruct CBP to suspend all unliquidated entries for which the importer has failed to supply this information.
