Duty liability (Anti-dumping duties)
Country of origin or export: China

No exporters in China received normal values in the most recent re-investigation.
The liability for anti-dumping duty results from the proceedings conducted under SIMA and from the CITT finding. Given that no exporters or producers provided a response to the CBSA’s Requests for Information, normal values will therefore be determined by a ministerial specification under SIMA.
