Certain Carbon Steel Welded Pipe
Conclusion of Review of Final Determination

Ottawa, September 29, 2017

On September 29, 2017, pursuant to paragraph 76.1(2)(b) of the Special Import Measures Act, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) continued the final determination of dumping regarding certain carbon steel welded pipe originating in or exported to Canada from Chinese Taipei with the following amendments: the CBSA terminated the dumping investigation regarding certain carbon steel welded pipe exported to Canada from Chinese Taipei by Chung Hung Steel Corporation and Shin Yang Steel Co. Ltd.; and revised the margins of dumping for subject goods originating in or exported from Chinese Taipei by “all other exporters”.

The subject goods are usually classified under the following Harmonized System (HS) classification number:

Note that the HS codes are for convenience of reference only. Refer to the product definition for authoritative details regarding the subject goods.

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) is continuing its review into the question of injury to the domestic industry and will make a decision by December 8, 2017.

As a result of the CBSA’s decision to terminate the dumping investigation regarding certain carbon steel welded pipe exported to Canada from Chinese Taipei by Chung Hung Steel Corporation and Shin Yang Steel Co. Ltd., imports of subject goods from these exporters are no longer subject to anti-dumping duty.

If the CITT reaffirms its threat of injury finding, certain carbon steel welded pipe originating in or exported from Chinese Taipei will continue to be subject to anti-dumping duty.

If the CITT replaces its injury finding with a negative finding, all proceedings will be terminated. In such circumstances, imports will no longer be subject to anti-dumping duty.

Additional information about the review of the final determination of dumping is contained in a Statement of Reasons, which will be available within 15 days on the CBSA’s website at: http://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/sima-lmsi/menu-eng.html.

*The CBSA terminated the dumping investigation regarding certain carbon steel welded pipe exported to Canada from Chinese Taipei by Chung Hung Steel Corporation and Shin Yang Steel Co. Ltd., as the margins of dumping for these exporters were insignificant. Pursuant to subsection 2(1) of SIMA, a margin of dumping that is less than two percent of the export price of the goods is defined as insignificant.

Note: The margins of dumping reported in the table above are the margins determined by the CBSA for purposes of the review of the final determination of dumping with respect to certain carbon steel welded pipe originating in or exported from Chinese Taipei. Information regarding normal values of the subject goods should be obtained from the exporter. Imports from exporters/producers that did not provide sufficient information to the CBSA during the original dumping investigation and who are not listed in the table above will be subject to the All Other Exporters anti-dumping duty rate, pursuant to a ministerial specification.

Please consult the SIMA Self-Assessment Guide for more detailed information explaining how to determine the amount of SIMA duties owing.
