Form 7401 Distribution of Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset to

Pay.gov Instructions
During the Self-Enrollment process, a person who is legally authorized to bind the producer must
create the username and password. This is crucial because the name of the user will automatically
generate as a signature at the end of the certification.
The CDSOA certification consists of four pages. Each page must be completed in its entirety before
continuing on to the next page. After acknowledging that all the information is true and accurate, the
"Submit Data" button must then be selected. Failure to select the "Submit Data" button could result in
the loss of information and non-receipt of the certification. After the certification has been submitted
electronically, claimants will be given a tracking number in the User Center section. This number will
allow claimants to view the status of the certification. If the certification is submitted properly the
"Form Status" will state "Accepted." This only means that the certification has been submitted
properly not that the certification has been verified for accuracy by CBP.

*Please note that the session will expire after it has remained idle for a total of 30 minutes, which could
result in possible data loss. If more time is needed to complete the certification, select "Request More
Time" and the time will be reset to 30 minutes.
If filing on more than one case, a duplicate copy of a submitted certification can be made. Therefore,
appropriate form adjustments can be completed without having to start the process again. After
selecting the "Submit Data" button and the form has been accepted, click "Duplicate" under Form
Actions.
To view and/or print a completed certification, select "View PDF," which is also under Form Actions. To
view, print or duplicate a certification while logged out; please complete the following steps. Log in,
locate the Forms box under Forms List and select "Submitted Forms."
If, during the completion process of the certification, help is needed in understanding a question,
simply place the cursor over the answer box. By doing so, a small text box will appear providing a brief
explanation of the information that should be entered.
While navigating through the certification, please avoid using the Enter key and the browser's Back
button. Using these keys could result in incomplete data being transmitted, pages being loaded
incorrectly, and/or the user being logged out of the form. Please use the form's navigation buttons
wherever possible.
