CBSA starts dumping investigation of corrosion-resistant steel sheet from three countries
The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) launched an investigation into the alleged injurious dumping and subsidizing of certain corrosion-resistant steel sheet from Turkey, the United Arab Emirates and Vietnam.
The investigation follows a complaint filed by a Canadian manufacturer of corrosion-resistant steel sheet.
In the next step of the investigation the Canadian International Trade Tribunal will first determine whether the imports are harming Canadian producers, and will issue a decision by January 7, 2020.
Concurrently, the CBSA will investigate whether the imports are being sold in Canada at unfair prices, and will make a preliminary decision by February 6, 2020.
Anti-dumping and/or countervailing duties could eventually be applied to the goods under investigation.
