CBSA extends investigation on dumping and subsidizing of thermoformed molded fiber tableware from China

The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) announced it has extended the preliminary phase of the investigation respecting the alleged injurious dumping and subsidizing of certain thermoformed molded fiber tableware originating in or exported from China.

Due to the complexity or novelty of the issues presented in the investigations, number of persons involved, and difficulty of obtaining satisfactory evidence, the period has been extended, from the usual 90 days, to 135 days.

The decision to issue preliminary determinations or to terminate the investigations with respect to some or all of the goods will be made on or before February 27, 2026.
