Thailand’s Department of Foreign Trade (DFT) has announced that it has initiated a sunset review of antidumping duties on cold rolled stainless steel products imported from China. The DFT will assess whether lifting the current duties would harm the domestic industry.
The duties on the products in question were originally imposed in December 2014. Additionally, in 2019 the ministry had extended the duration of the duties for another five years. The current antidumping duties are in the range of 0-33.32 percent.
The products in question currently fall under Customs Tariff Statistics Position Numbers 7219.32.00.030, 7219.32.00.040, 7219.33.00.030, 7219.33.00.040, 7219.34.00.030, 7219.34.00.040, 7219.35.00.030, 7219.35.00.040, 7220.20.10.030, 7220.20.10.040, 7220.20.90.030, and 7220.20.90.040.
