The administrative review is part of the CBSA’s enforcement of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal’s (CITT) finding issued on September 2, 2021. For further information on administrative reviews, refer to Memorandum D14-1-8: Administrative Review Policy – Special Import Measures Act (SIMA).

The product definition and the applicable tariff classification numbers of the goods subject to the CITT’s order can be found on the CBSA’s Measures in Force.

Period of investigation

The period of investigation (POI) and the profitability analysis period (PAP) for the administrative review is October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2024.

Administrative review process

At the initiation of the administrative review, the CBSA sent an RFI to the eight exporters listed above, as well as their known importers to solicit information on the costs and selling prices of subject goods and like goods. The information was requested for purposes of updating the normal values and export prices for subject goods imported into Canada.

The CBSA did not receive a complete response to the dumping RFI by the due date from Delancey Street Furniture Vietnam Co., Ltd.; Eterno Co., Ltd.; and Restoration Hardware, Inc.. Subject goods produced or exported by these exporters will be determined pursuant to the ministerial specification, under section 29 of the Special Import Measures Act, by advancing the export price of the goods by 188.0% for subject good from China and 179.5% for subject goods from Vietnam. For information please see the CBSA’s Measures in Force.

The CBSA will continue its administrative review for the other five exporters that responded to determine if the information provided is sufficiently complete for the purposes of determining normal values and export prices.

Importer responsibility

Importers are reminded that it is their responsibility to calculate and declare their anti-dumping and countervailing duty liability. If importers are using the services of a customs broker to clear importations, the brokerage firm should be advised that the goods are subject to anti-dumping and countervailing measures and be provided with sufficient information necessary to clear the shipments. To determine their liability for anti-dumping and countervailing duty, importers should contact the exporters to obtain the applicable normal values and amounts of subsidy. For further information on this matter, refer to Memorandum D14-1-2: Disclosure of normal values, export prices, and amounts of subsidy established under the Special Import Measures Act.

The Customs Act applies, with any modifications that the circumstances require, with respect to the accounting and payment of anti-dumping and countervailing duties. As such, failure to pay the duties within the prescribed time will result in the application of the interest provisions of the Act.

Should the importer disagree with the determination made on any importation of goods, a request for re-determination may be filed. For more information on how to file a request for re-determination, please refer to the Guide for appealing a duty assessment.
