the invoices to the manufacturer , and if invoices are paid in bulk processing , supporting schedules noting the specific invoices and itemized bulk payment requests from the manufacturer should be provided . 195 Kingway did not provide original commercial invoices , CF7501s , or contracts . 196 Kingway submitted part of the packing list and part of the invoice , rather than the original documents requested . 197 Although Kingway labeled one page as “ COPY OF CONTRACT ,” this page only contains part of the packing list and part of the invoice , rather than the original documents requested . 198

In sum , with respect to the production of QSP in Malaysia , Kingway and MSW did not answer most questions in the CF28 and for some of the questions they attempted to answer they provided altered photographic responses to questions , untrue statements in response to questions , or did not provide the requested documents . With respect to entry information , Kingway did not provide most documents requested and was unable to tie some of the documents it did submit to number

entry [ ] 0564 . Therefore , based on Kingway ’ s CF28 Response , CBP is unable to determine that the country of origin of the QSP entered by Kingway was Malaysia . Although Kingway ’ s CF28 Response does not allow us to determine the country of origin , other record evidence indicates the MSW Companies source QSP from China . This is discussed this below in the “ Other Evidence of Evasion ” section .

199 Nio submitted a timely but partial response on December 28 , 2021 . 200 As outlined below , Nio ’ s CF28 Response contains multiple discrepancies and is not complete .
