ITC Rules In Favor of Petition Citing Unfair Trade Practices

Last month, Commerce made affirmative anti-dumping and countervailing duty determinations with respect to these imported products. Commerce found that the margin of dumping ranged from 64.28 percent to 91.73 percent, and that the net subsidy rate ranged from 29.54 percent to 352.82 percent, depending on the identity of the Chinese producer. Consequently, import duties in these amounts will be imposed to offset dumping and the unfair advantage of government subsidies given to Chinese producers of these products. Because the antidumping and countervailing duties apply independently to imports of these products, the combined duties that will result from these measures will range from 93.82 percent to 444.55 percent of the customs value of the imported products, depending upon the identity of the Chinese producer.
