Foreign Currency Exchange Rates |
NOTE: These are NOT commercial currency exchange rates. |
These rates are calculated using the SAS program also available on this page, and are intended for use only in calculating antidumping duties. |
|
The Department of Commerce ("the Department")
has revised its policy regarding currency conversions to conform to changes
resulting from the Uruguay Round Agreements Act. We announced this change in
methodology in the notice entitled, "Change in Policy Regarding Currency
Conversion," published in the Federal Register at
(61 FR 9434; March 8, 1996).
The computer program used and the new official daily exchange rate files are available below.
|
This SAS Computer Program is written in SAS 9.11 for Windows.
|
For a specified country, the program converts a file of actual daily exchange
rates to a file of "official" daily exchange rates. In this process, each actual
daily exchange rate is classified as "normal" or "fluctuating." An extended
pattern of appreciating rates defines a "sustained movement." Based on these
classifications, the program assigns the appropriate official exchange rate for
each day.
|
The program produces two types of official daily exchange rates for each country.
For purposes of antidumping" ("AD") investigations, the program classifies the
daily rates as "normal," "fluctuating," or "sustained movement." For purposes
of AD administrative reviews, the program classifies the daily rates as "normal"
or "fluctuating." Since the two types of daily exchange rates differ, use the
exchange rate variable ending in an "I" for AD investigations and the exchange
rate variable ending in "R" for AD administrative reviews.
|
Official Daily Exchange Rates: For the countries listed below, the
actual daily exchange rates used in the program were acquired either from the
Federal
Reserve Statistical Release H.10 on the web, or from
Dow Jones Reuters Business Interactive LLC
(trading as Factiva) (a fee-based service). All currencies listed below are denominated
in U.S. dollars per foreign currency unit. Exchange rates for additional
countries will be made available by the Department as needed for AD purposes.
|
Effective October 1, 2005, IA will only update the Euro rates and will no longer update
the exchange rates for the 12 individual countries now using the Euro. For historical
purposes, we will continue to list through June 30, 2005, the separate national currency
rates for these Euro countries. Luxembourg rates are not listed because there have been
no cases for several years.
