Conclusion of normal value and export price review: Container Chassis (CC 2024 UP1)
Ottawa,
The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has today concluded a normal value review (review) to establish the normal values, export prices and amounts of subsidy applicable to container chassis originating in or exported from China by Dongguan CIMC Vehicle Co., Ltd. (CIMC).
The review is part of the CBSA’s enforcement of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal’s (CITT) finding issued on February 18, 2022 in Inquiry No. NQ-2021-005, respecting the dumping and subsidizing of container chassis from China, in accordance with the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA).
The product definition and the applicable tariff classification numbers of the goods subject to the CITT order can be found on the CBSA’s Measures in Force.
Period of investigation
For this review, the period of investigation (POI) and the profitability analysis period (PAP) were from April 1, 2023 to March 31, 2024.
Normal value review process
At the initiation of this review, the CBSA sent dumping and subsidy requests for information (RFI) to CIMC. The information was requested for purposes of determining normal values, export prices and an amount for subsidy applicable to subject goods exported to Canada. The CBSA did not receive a response to the RFIs. As such, subject goods will be subject to a ministerial specification. For information on the amount of the ministerial specification please see the CBSA’s Measures in Force.
Normal values and amount of subsidy
As the CBSA did not receive a response to the dumping RFI, the normal values for subject goods exported to Canada by CIMC will be determined pursuant to the ministerial specification, under section 29 of SIMA, by advancing the export price of the goods by 126.4%.
As the CBSA did not receive a response to the subsidy RFI, the amount for subsidy for CIMC will be determined pursuant to the ministerial specification, under subsection 30.4(2) of SIMA. The countervailing duty will be equal to 12,370 Chinese Yuan per unit.
Importer responsibility
Importers are reminded that it is their responsibility to calculate and declare their anti-dumping and countervailing duty liabilities. 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 SIMA measures and be provided with sufficient information necessary to clear the shipments. To determine their anti-dumping and countervailing duty liabilities, importers should contact the exporters to obtain the applicable normal values and amount 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 (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.
